Rustic chicken tray bake with broken feta spinach tomatoes and browned pan juices — **TooGut pick**Flexible, practical, genuinely delicious.

This is the low-effort cousin of stuffed chicken. Bone-in thighs roast over tomatoes until their skin is crisp, then spinach and feta join late so one wilts into the juices while the other keeps salty, browned edges.

One step at a time

Let’s cook.

Tick each step as you go. Built-in timers keep the important moments close.

Give the chicken room

Heat the oven to 220°C. Toss tomatoes, capsicum, garlic and lemon with half the oil and oregano on a large tray. Nestle chicken among them, skin side up.

Season the skin

Rub chicken with remaining oil, 1 teaspoon salt and pepper. Keep the skin clear of vegetables so it can crisp.

Roast until nearly done

Roast for 30 minutes until the tomatoes collapse and chicken skin browns in uneven patches.

Add the tender ingredients

Tuck spinach into the hot juices and scatter over feta and olives. Roast for another 8 to 10 minutes until chicken is cooked and feta edges colour.

Rest the whole tray

Rest for 5 minutes. Squeeze the roasted lemon over everything and spoon pan juices around the chicken.
