Garlic powder: adds a mellow, savoury garlic flavour.
Onion powder: for that subtle sweet and savoury background note.
Basil (dried): brings a touch of sweetness and classic herbiness.

Smoked paprika: gives the chicken a warm, smoky depth.
Roma tomatoes: juicy and jammy once roasted.

✔️ How To Make Sheet Pan Chicken with Roasted Tomatoes & Feta

To begin with, preheat your oven to 400°F. While the oven heats, prepare your sheet pan by adding the chopped tomatoes, garlic, and shallot. Drizzle everything with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss well to coat, making sure everything is evenly spread across the pan. This mixture will roast into a jammy, flavour-packed base for the chicken.

Next, move on to the chicken. Start by patting the chicken breasts dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This helps them sear properly. Then, carefully slice each breast in half horizontally to create two thinner cutlets of equal thickness. Once sliced, season both sides of each piece generously with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, dried basil, oregano, parsley, and smoked paprika.

After that, heat olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil is shimmering, carefully add the chicken in batches and sear each piece for about 1 minute per side, just until slightly browned. You’re not cooking it through here, just creating a golden crust. As the pieces finish searing, nestle them directly on top of the tomato mixture on the sheet pan.

Now, it’s time to bake! Place the pan in the oven and roast everything uncovered for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. The tomatoes will break down and caramelize during this time.

Finally, once out of the oven, sprinkle the dish with the crumbled feta and chopped fresh parsley. The feta adds a salt, creamy finish, while the parsley brings a fresh pop of green. Serve as is, or spoon over rice or pasta.
