Ingredients

Yield: 4 servings

Main

  • 1 red bell pepper, cored and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 zucchini, cut into 1/2-inch half-moons
  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes
  • 1 red onion, cut into 1/2-inch wedges
  • 1 (15-ounce) can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Juice of 1 lemon (about 2-3 tablespoons)
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • Fresh parsley or dill, chopped, for garnish (optional)

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easier cleanup.

  2. Step 2

    In a large bowl, combine the red bell pepper, zucchini, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and drained chickpeas. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper. Toss well to ensure all vegetables are evenly coated.

  3. Step 3

    Spread the seasoned vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Ensure not to overcrowd the pan; use two sheets if necessary for even roasting.

  4. Step 4

    Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp and lightly charred in spots, tossing halfway through.

  5. Step 5

    Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Drizzle the roasted vegetables with fresh lemon juice and sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese. Toss gently to combine.

  6. Step 6

    Garnish with fresh parsley or dill if desired. Serve immediately as a light meal or as a vibrant side dish.

Tips

  • Add a tablespoon of balsamic glaze after roasting for an extra layer of sweet tangy flavor.
  • For a more substantial meal, serve over quinoa, couscous, or with crusty bread.
  • Swap in other quick-cooking vegetables like broccoli florets or sliced mushrooms.
