One Pan Roasted Greek Chicken ‘Salad’
This dinner is always on my rotation and it never disappoints. The easy breezy method of making this is also a bonus. You just have to mix and marinate. Then transfer to baking dish and throw it in the oven. Too freakin easy y’all.
ingredients:
Another really simple, fresh list of ingredients. And if you are missing something, it’s okay, just leave it out. I love using bone in skin on thighs or legs with this recipe. The olives are amazing, as are the artichokes. And the basics are the tomatoes, onions and LOTS of garlic! You just can’t go wrong.
marinade:
The marinade is super simple and delicious as hell. Base is of course olive oil, with some balsamic vinegar and apple cider vinegar. But the veggies all release their juices along with the chicken and this makes for the perfect combination of flavor. Don’t forget the fresh oregano and thyme.
You might want to add a little feta cheese at the end while serving, but in my opinion, it doesn’t need it. Was superbly delicious as is. You can serve with some rice, pita or Tsatziki sauce.

I love everything in this recipe and I am wondering if I can make it in a Air Frier?
This was really good! And easy! It doesn’t need a starch, but it’s great with angel hair pasta. So much juice almost a very chunky soup.
This was one of the best chicken recipes I have ever cooked! My son, who never likes fancy, was absolutely over the moon with it. I intend to cook one of your meals every week. Also, love your videos/reels.
Just made this in a cast iron skillet with lid over a campfire. Delicious!
So yummy. thank you Stella
Can I use chicken breast instead? Thank you
Made this last night and it was amazing. Thank you!!
Stella, I made it in my Dutch oven. I was delicious 😋
Great meal!
can I cook it in a Dutch oven.
Hi Lori, it should work in a Dutch oven !
Fabulous! And it looks as great as it tastes. Thank you, Stella!!!
This is a 5 star recipe idea! Simple & clever! I’ve made it twice with two different proteins, and I think it would work with any meat. I made a pot of rice and big salad of greens. That way each person put their plate together how they liked it. It‘ll be a keeper recipe on the regular rotation. Thanks, Stella.
This is ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS, DELICIOUS. Love love it. EASY to make, thanks so much for your delicious recipes. I’m Greek, & love Greek food!!
Question….I can make this with chicken breasts or chicken cutlets??
Thanks again beautiful Stella👍
I have the same question!
This dish is absolutely amazing! My husband raved about it and said we need to make this on rotation. We love ALL of your recipes, especially the Greek-inspired ones, but this one was out of this world!
I started making my own stuff because I wanted more flavor and your site has great recipes. I made this today. I wasn’t sure if I should transfer the marinade into the baking dish so I poured it over at the end. It was delicious but made a mess in the oven. My wife said that the artichokes and kalamata olives really made this dish and asked me to make it again…that never happens! 5 stars.
Hi Gary, Love that you guys enjoyed the chicken dish! Thanks for trying it! The marinade is to be poured over the chicken pre bake if it touches raw chicken- just an FYI – or you could get salmonela poisoning. Please be careful with that!
