- 2 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs (900g)
- 3 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar fruit infused like Baker and Olive if you have it (45g)
- 2 Tbsp olive oil divided (30g)
- 1 Tbsp. grainy dijon mustard 15g
- 1 Tbsp. pure maple syrup or honey
- 3 frozen garlic cubes or minced cloves
- 2 tsp oregano
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- 1 lemon zested
- 1 Tbsp lemon juice 15g
- 2 lb baby potatoes halved or quartered (900g)
- 2 tsp kosher salt divided
- 3 cup green beans chopped (340g)
- 2 Tbsp shallots sliced (25g)
- 2 oz feta cheese 56g
- ¾ cup tzatziki 180g
- Additional fresh squeezed lemon
Preheat the oven to 425. Trim chicken thighs of any unwanted fat.
Make the marinade by combining vinegar, half of the olive oil, dijon, pure maple syrup, garlic, oregano, pepper, lemon zest, and lemon juice in a small bowl. Pour most of the marinade over the chicken, reserving a small amount (1-2 Tbsp) for the potatoes.
Add the chopped potatoes to a LARGE (21x15) parchment lined sheet pan. Drizzle with remaining marinade and toss well. Season the potatoes with half of the salt and roast at 425 for 20 minutes or until they’re getting tender, but could still use some color. Remove the pan from the oven and scoot the potatoes to one side. Add your marinated chicken thighs to the other side of the pan, and the chopped green beans in the middle. (You don’t want things too crowded so make sure you’re using a large sheet pan!) Add the chopped shallots to the top. Spray or drizzle the whole pan with the other half of the olive oil, and sprinkle with remaining salt.
Put the pan back in the oven and roast for 25 minutes. Sprinkle the potatoes and green beans with feta, then turn the broiler to low and broil for an additional 3-4 minutes to get some color on the chicken. Watch closely and toss the veggies if needed to avoid burning!
Plate your dinner by spreading 2 Tbsp of tzatziki on the bottom of your dish and top with about 112g warm potatoes, 50g green beans, and 112g chicken. Finish with some fresh squeezed lemon. And if you prefer more volume, add a pile of arugula or mixed greens!
GF/DF: This is naturally gluten free and can easily be made dairy-free by swapping in dairy-free feta and dairy free tzatziki. Trader Joe’s has really great options for both! Or simply skip those components.
