Ingredients
  

4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs

2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved

1 red bell pepper, sliced

1 yellow bell pepper, sliced

1/2 red onion, sliced

1 lemon, juiced and zested

3 tablespoons olive oil

2 teaspoons dried oregano

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Feta cheese, crumbled (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Whisk well to create a marinade.

      Add the chicken thighs to the bowl, ensuring they are well coated with the marinade. Let them sit for 15 minutes to absorb the flavors (if you're in a rush, you can skip this step).

        On a large sheet pan, arrange the marinated chicken thighs. Surround them with cherry tomatoes, sliced bell peppers, and onion. Drizzle any remaining marinade over the vegetables.

          Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 75°C) and the vegetables are tender.

            Once cooked, remove from the oven and allow to rest for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley and crumbled feta cheese if desired.

              Serve the chicken and vegetables straight from the pan for easy cleanup or transfer to a serving platter.
