How to Make It

Here’s a quick guide to make your meal.

Preheat the oven

Preheat oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Prepare chicken and veggies

Cut the chicken breast into small bite-sized strips. Cut all of the veggies into small, bite-sized pieces ensuring that they are even in size so that they cook evenly.

Toss with olive oil

Place chicken and veggies in a large mixing bowl and toss in olive oil.

Mix spices

Combine all spices in a separate bowl and then toss the chicken and veggies in the spice mixture.

Bake

Pour the ingredients onto the sheet pan and bake at 400°F for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.

Finish with lemon and feta

Remove from the oven, squeeze juice from the lemon on top, and immediately top with crumbled feta so it melts slightly from the heat of the meal.

Serve

Serve with a dollop of tzatziki and fresh herbs for a refreshing finish.

How to Store It

Fridge: Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Freezer: No, the veggies lose texture when frozen.
Reheat: Microwave until heated through, about 2-3 minutes.

Tips for Best Results

• Ensure chicken and veggies are cut uniformly for even cooking.
• Feel free to experiment with your favorite spices for a personal touch.
• For extra crispiness, broil on high for the last couple of minutes if desired.
• Let the feta sit on the hot meal for a couple of minutes for the best melting effect.
