Ingredients

• 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 2 medium-sized zucchini
• 2 cups cherry tomatoes
• 1 medium-sized red onion
• 1 cup kalamata olives
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 3 pieces garlic cloves, minced
• 0.5 cup feta cheese, crumbled
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
• 4 sheets aluminum foil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Cut the zucchini into thin rounds, halve the cherry tomatoes, thinly slice the red onion, and set them aside.

Step 3

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

Step 4

Lay out 4 sheets of aluminum foil, each approximately 12x18 inches, on a flat surface.

Step 5

Place one chicken breast in the center of each foil sheet.

Step 6

Distribute the zucchini, cherry tomatoes, red onion slices, and kalamata olives evenly between the foil packets, arranging them around the chicken.

Step 7

Drizzle the olive oil marinade generously over each chicken and vegetable portion.

Step 8

Fold the sides of the foil up and over the chicken and vegetables, sealing the edges tightly to form a packet.

Step 9

Place the foil packets on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

Step 10

Carefully open each foil packet (watch out for hot steam) and sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese on top.

Step 11

Transfer the contents of each packet to a plate and garnish with fresh chopped parsley, if desired.

Step 12

Serve warm and enjoy your Greek Chicken and Vegetables!
