Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 medium zucchinis, sliced into 1/4 inch rounds
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 yellow onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Place the chicken, sliced zucchini, chopped bell pepper, chopped onion, and minced garlic in a large baking dish.
  3. Sprinkle the oregano, basil, paprika, salt, and pepper over the ingredients.
  4. Drizzle with olive oil and toss everything until evenly coated.
  5. Spread the mixture into a single layer and place halved cherry tomatoes on top.
  6. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.
  7. If using, sprinkle crumbled feta over the hot bake before serving. Serve warm.

Notes

For a dairy-free version, omit feta or use a plant-based crumble. Cool leftovers to room temperature, then refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
