Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 425 F. Line a 18″ x 13″ sheet pan with parchment paper.
  2. Step 2

    To make the lemon marinade: in a small jar or bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, salt, black pepper, pressed garlic, oregano and onion powder.
  3. Step 3

    To a medium mixing bowl, add potato wedges and 3 tbsp of the marinade. Toss. Once the potatoes are evenly coated, spread them in an even layer on the sheet pan. Bake for about 25 minutes.
  4. Step 4

    While the potatoes are baking, marinate your chicken by adding the chicken thighs to a medium bowl and covering with ⅓ cup of the marinade. Ensure the chicken is fully coated.
  5. Step 5

    After 25 minutes, remove the potatoes from the oven and flip them. To the sheet pan, add red onion, bell peppers and tomato wedges. Nestle the chicken thighs amongst the vegetables and potatoes. Drizzle with the remaining marinade and toss to ensure everything is evenly coated and spread in a single layer on the pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until chicken is fully cooked (internal temperature will reach 165F).
  6. Step 6

    Garnish with fresh parsley and feta cheese and drizzle with whipped feta.
  7. Step 7

    To make the whipped feta : in a high powered blender or food processor, combine feta cheese, olive oil, yogurt, fresh parsley, lemon juice and black pepper. Blend until smooth.
