Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. In a large bowl, combine 1.5 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs, 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, 4 minced garlic cloves, 1 tsp dried oregano, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Toss well to coat the chicken evenly.
  2. Step 2: Arrange the chicken thighs on a large rimmed sheet pan. Scatter 1 pint halved cherry tomatoes and 1/2 cup pitted kalamata olives around the chicken.
  3. Step 3: Roast in the preheated oven for 25 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the tomatoes start to blister.
  4. Step 4: Remove the pan from the oven and drizzle 2 tbsp lemon juice over the chicken and vegetables. Sprinkle 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese evenly on top.
  5. Step 5: Return to the oven and roast for an additional 5 minutes until the feta softens slightly.
  6. Step 6: Garnish with 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley before serving warm.
