Ingredients: 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts; 1 lemon, juiced and zested; 3 cloves of garlic, minced; 2 tablespoons olive oil; 1 teaspoon dried oregano; 1 teaspoon paprika; Salt and pepper, to taste; 1 red bell pepper, sliced; 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced; 1 red onion, sliced; 1 cup cherry tomatoes; 1/2 cup Kalamata olives; 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped; 1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled

Instructions

In a large bowl, combine lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, olive oil, dried oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well to create the marinade.
Add the chicken breasts to the marinade and ensure they are coated evenly. Cover the bowl and let it marinate in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking dish by lightly greasing it with olive oil.
Place the marinated chicken breasts in the baking dish and arrange the sliced bell peppers, red onion, cherry tomatoes, and Kalamata olives around them.
Drizzle any remaining marinade over the vegetables and chicken in the baking dish.
Cover the dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
Remove the foil and broil for an additional 5 minutes to give the chicken and vegetables a nice char.
Once the chicken is cooked and the vegetables are tender, remove the dish from the oven.
Sprinkle the chopped parsley and crumbled feta cheese over the dish before serving.
Serve the Mediterranean chicken hot, garnished with extra parsley and feta if desired. Enjoy the burst of flavors in every bite!
