Greek Chicken with Zucchini and Chickpeas

Oregano chicken, zucchini and chickpeas roast together until the vegetables char in spots and the beans turn a little crisp. Feta goes on after the oven so it stays salty and distinct. Total time: 40 minutes.

Ingredients
  

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breast cutlets about 5 oz each
  • 2 medium zucchini cut into thick half-moons
  • 1 can 15 oz chickpeas, drained and rinsed

  2. Toss the chicken, zucchini and chickpeas with olive oil, oregano, salt and black pepper.
  3. Spread the mixture on the hot pan without overlapping the chicken and roast for 16 to 20 minutes, turning the zucchini once, until the chicken reaches 165°F.
  4. Squeeze the lemon over the hot pan and scatter the feta across the chicken, zucchini and chickpeas.
  5. Rest the chicken for 3 minutes before dividing all the pan components among four plates.
