Main Ingredients
  • 1 ½ lbs. baby gold potatoes halved or quartered if large
  • 1 small red onion cut into wedges
  • 1 ½ lbs. boneless, skinless chicken thighs about 6 pieces
  • 8 oz. fresh green beans trimmed
  • 4 Tbsp. olive oil plus more for drizzling
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tsp. dried oregano or 2 tsp fresh, chopped
  • 1 tsp. smoked paprika
  • 1 lemon zest and juice
  • ½ cup whole pitted Kalamata olives
  • ½ cup crumbled feta cheese
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Equipment

  • Sheet pan
  • Parchment paper
  • Mixing bowl
  • Instant-read thermometer

Method
 

Step-by-Step Method
  1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a 14x20 sheet pan with parchment paper. In a mixing bowl, toss potatoes and onion with 2 tablespoons olive oil, half of the garlic, half of the oregano, half of the smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Spread evenly on the pan and roast for 15 minutes.
  2. In the same bowl, toss chicken with remaining olive oil, garlic, oregano, smoked paprika, lemon zest, juice, salt, and pepper.
  3. Remove the sheet pan from the oven. Nestle chicken between the potatoes. Add green beans around the chicken and drizzle lightly with olive oil. Scatter olives over the top.
  4. Return pan to the oven and roast for 20–25 minutes, until chicken reaches 165°F internal temperature and potatoes are golden.
  5. Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese over everything. Roast for 2–3 more minutes until cheese warms through. Garnish with parsley and lemon wedges. Serve directly from the pan.
