π Ingredients (Serves 3–4):
-
1 lb (450g) boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized chunks
-
2 medium zucchinis, halved lengthwise and sliced
-
1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
-
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
-
3 garlic cloves, finely minced
-
1 tsp dried oregano
-
1 tsp dried basil
-
½ tsp dried thyme
-
Salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
-
3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
-
½ cup crumbled feta cheese (or more to taste)
-
Fresh parsley or basil, chopped, for garnish
-
(Optional: A squeeze of lemon juice before serving for brightness)
π¨π³ Instructions:
-
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with olive oil or cooking spray.
-
Toss everything together:
In a large mixing bowl, combine chicken pieces, zucchini slices, cherry tomatoes, onion, garlic, herbs (oregano, basil, thyme), salt, pepper, and olive oil. Mix well until evenly coated. -
Bake the base:
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked (internal temperature reaches 165°F/74°C) and the vegetables are tender. -
Add the cheese:
Remove the dish from the oven and sprinkle crumbled feta cheese evenly on top. Return to the oven and bake for another 5 minutes, just until the feta is warmed and slightly melted. -
Garnish and serve:
Top with freshly chopped parsley or basil. Optionally, add a splash of lemon juice before serving for a zesty finish.
