Prep: 20 minsCook: 23 minsTotal: 43 minutes
Servings: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

  • 1 ¼ pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 lb. Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved or quartered if large (22 ½ cups)
  • 1 (14-ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained and quartered
  • 1 yellow bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • ½ small red onion, thinly sliced
  • ¼ cup avocado oil or olive oil
  • ¼ cup fresh herbs of choice, roughly chopped (basil, oregano, and/or thyme; may substitute 1 tablespoon dried herbs), plus more for serving
  • Juice of 1 medium lemon (about 3 tablespoons)
  • 3 garlic cloves, finely minced
  • ½ teaspoon fine salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ lemon, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • ⅓ cup pitted kalamata olives, halved
  • ¼ cup crumbled feta cheese
  • Purchased or Homemade Tzatziki Sauce

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400℉ and position a rack in the middle of the oven. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Place the chicken thighs on the baking sheet and scatter the Brussels sprouts, artichoke hearts, bell pepper, and onion slices around the chicken.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the oil, herbs, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and pepper. Drizzle over the chicken and vegetables, tossing the vegetables lightly to coat them with the oil mixture. Place a lemon slice over each piece of chicken.
  4. Bake for 13 minutes. Remove from the oven, add the tomatoes and olives to the pan and gently stir the vegetables. Return the pan to the oven.
  5. Bake an additional 5 minutes then open the oven and sprinkle with feta cheese.
  6. With the pan still in the oven, switch the oven to broil (high) and broil for 3-5 minutes or until the vegetables are lightly browned, the chicken is cooked through (165℉ in the thickest part), and the feta cheese is soft. Watch closely so nothing burns.
  7. Remove the pan from the oven and sprinkle additional fresh herbs, if desired, just before serving. Serve with Tzatziki sauce.
