Preparation and Tossing

  2. In a large bowl, combine the chicken cubes, zucchini, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and minced garlic.
  3. Drizzle the mixture with olive oil, then sprinkle with oregano, basil, thyme, salt, and pepper. Toss well to ensure everything is evenly coated.
  4. Transfer the mixture to a 9x13-inch baking dish or a large sheet pan, spreading it into a single layer.

  2. Remove the dish from the oven and sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese evenly over the top.
  3. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F/74°C) and the feta is lightly golden.
  4. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving. Serve immediately over rice, quinoa, or with crusty bread.
