Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat it to 425°F.
Making the Ladolemono Sauce
  1. Whisk lemon juice, oregano, garlic, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl. While whisking, drizzle in olive oil until emulsified.
Coating the Veggies
  1. Place the onions, zucchini, bell peppers, and tomatoes on a sheet pan. Season with salt and pepper, pour 1/4 cup ladolemono sauce, toss to coat, and spread evenly.
Adding Chicken and Other Ingredients
  1. Season chicken thighs with salt and pepper, and nestle them between the veggies along with olives and feta chunks. Drizzle the remaining ladolemono sauce over everything.
Baking
  1. Bake for 35 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked. Move the sheet pan to the top rack under the broiler for 2–3 minutes for caramelization.
Serving
  1. Spoon pan juices over the chicken, garnish with parsley, and serve immediately.
