Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pieces
  • 2 medium zucchinis sliced into half-moons
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • ½ medium red onion thinly sliced
  • ½ cup Kalamata olives sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon dried basil optional
  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika optional
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ cup crumbled feta cheese
  • Fresh parsley chopped (for garnish)

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Combine the chicken, zucchini, cherry tomatoes, red onion, olives, and minced garlic in a mixing bowl.
  3. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle oregano, basil, paprika (if using), salt, and pepper over everything.
  4. Toss the mixture gently so the olive oil and seasonings coat all ingredients evenly.
  5. Spread the seasoned chicken and vegetables into the baking dish in a single layer.
  6. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes.
  7. Remove the foil and sprinkle crumbled feta cheese evenly over the top.
  8. Bake uncovered for another 10–15 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and zucchini is tender.
  9. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
