Ingredients
  

Chicken and Marinade
  • 5 Chicken thighs Adjust quantity for 6 thighs if needed
  • 1/2 cup Avocado oil or olive oil
  • 2 tbsp Lemon juice About 1/2 lemon
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 clove Garlic minced
  • 1 tsp Dried oregano
  • 1 tsp Dried thyme
  • 1/2 tsp Sea salt
Vegetables and Additions
  • 1 Bell pepper red, orange, or yellow
  • 1/2 Red onion large
  • 4 Yukon gold potatoes medium
  • 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup Capers or olives
  • 1/2 cup Marinated artichoke hearts
  • 1/2 cup Feta Cheese
  • 1/3 cup Fresh basil chopped, for garnish

Equipment

  • Large baking sheet
  • Small bowl

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easier cleanup.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, oregano, thyme, and sea salt to create the marinade.
  3. Place the chicken thighs on the prepared baking sheet. Pour half of the marinade over the chicken and toss to coat. Set aside.
  4. Chop the bell pepper and red onion into bite-sized pieces. Cut the potatoes into 1-inch chunks. Place the chopped vegetables, cherry tomatoes, capers, and artichoke hearts onto the baking sheet around the chicken.
  5. Drizzle the remaining marinade over the vegetables and toss them directly on the pan to coat evenly.
  6. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the potatoes are tender.
  7. Remove the pan from the oven. Sprinkle the feta cheese and fresh basil over the chicken and vegetables. Serve immediately.

Notes

For crispier potatoes, you can toss them in a separate bowl with a little extra oil before adding them to the sheet pan. If you prefer, use chicken breasts, but adjust the cooking time slightly as they cook faster than thighs.
