Ingredients
  

  • 2 medium zucchinis sliced into rounds
  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1 red bell pepper diced
  • 1/2 cup red onion diced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese crumbled
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley chopped (for garnish)

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced zucchinis, chicken pieces, cherry tomatoes, red bell pepper, red onion, and minced garlic.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, oregano, basil, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Pour this mixture over the chicken and vegetables, and toss until everything is well coated.
  4. Spread the mixture evenly in a large baking dish.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.

  7. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
