Equipment
- 1 Baking Dish
Ingredients
- 1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breast, cubed
- 1 medium zucchini, chopped
- 2 cups brown mushrooms, sliced
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
- 1 Tbsp. olive oil
- 1/2 lemon, juiced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp. dried oregano
- 1/2 tsp. paprika
- salt and pepper
- 8 oz. block of feta cheese
- parsley, for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Add the cubed chicken, zucchini, mushrooms and cherry tomatoes to a 9x9 baking dish (larger works too!). Top with olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, paprika, salt and black pepper and mix together to evenly coat.
- Make a hole in the center of the chicken and veggies and lay the block of cheese in the center. Place in the oven and bake for 25 minutes.
- Remove from the oven, break the cheese up and stir into the mixture. Mix everything to combine and place back in the oven for 5 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked through.
- Serve over rice, cauliflower rice for extra veggies or butter noodles.
Notes
- Be sure your chicken is in bite-sized chunks so it doesn't take too long to cook the chicken through. Cooking too long can cause the feta to burn.
