This Sheet Pan Mediterranean Chicken & Zucchini is a quick, flavorful, and healthy weeknight dinner. Juicy, herbed chicken breasts are roasted alongside tender zucchini, cherry tomatoes, and red onions for a balanced one-pan meal with minimal cleanup.
Ingredients:
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips
2 medium zucchinis, sliced into half-moons
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1 red onion, sliced
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
Juice of ½ lemon
2 tablespoons crumbled feta cheese (optional)
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a large bowl, combine the chicken strips, zucchini, cherry tomatoes, and red onion.
Drizzle with olive oil, then sprinkle oregano, garlic powder, paprika, salt, pepper, and lemon juice. Toss everything to coat evenly.
Spread the mixture in a single layer on the prepared sheet pan.
Bake for 20–25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and vegetables are tender.
Remove from oven and sprinkle with crumbled feta and chopped parsley before serving.
Notes:
Add kalamata olives or sliced bell peppers for variety.
Serve over rice, quinoa, or couscous for a more filling meal.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
