Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, oregano, thyme, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form a marinade.

Scatter the cherry tomatoes, sliced red onion, and optional kalamata olives around and on top of the chicken breasts.

Step 6

Drizzle the lemon juice over the chicken and vegetables.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, uncovered.

Step 8

Remove the dish from the oven and sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese over the top.

Step 9

Return the dish to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the feta is slightly melted.

Step 10

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.

Step 11

Enjoy this dish warm with a side of rice, quinoa, or crusty bread for a complete meal!
