Ingredients

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, oregano, paprika, garlic, salt, and pepper.
Place chicken breasts in a bowl and pour half the marinade over them. Toss to coat. Marinate for 10 minutes while prepping vegetables.
Spread zucchini, bell pepper, red onion, and cherry tomatoes on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with remaining marinade, toss, and spread into an even layer.
Nestle chicken breasts among the vegetables on the sheet. Roast for 20-24 minutes, flipping chicken once, until chicken is cooked through (internal temp 165°F/74°C) and vegetables are tender.
Sprinkle crumbled feta over chicken and vegetables. Return to oven for 2 minutes, just to warm the feta.
Garnish with chopped parsley before serving. Plate the chicken with a generous helping of roasted veggies and feta.
