Sheet Pan Mediterranean Chicken & Vegetables Recipe for Wraps, Pitas, Bowls & More by Donna John

Cooking is one of my favorite things to do, but sometimes I just want a simple, quick, easy recipe that doesn't require every pan in my kitchen and every gadget in my drawer. This sheet-pan Mediterranean chicken recipe covered those points, but was also a flavorful, tasty dinner that will be on repeat. I made chicken wraps out of the tender, juicy roasted chicken and healthy vegetables, but there are so many different ways you could enjoy this dinner. We'll go into that later, but for know, let's find out what you need and how to make it.

Here is your shopping list for this sheet-pan recipe: boneless chicken breasts, bell peppers (any color), grape tomatoes, red onion, olive oil, lemons for juicing, fresh garlic, red wine vinegar, dried oregano and either Mediterranean seasoning or Greek seasoning. All the ingredients are put into a food storage bag (or shallow dish if preferred), marinated if you have the time and then baked on a sheet pan. So easy!

Now comes the fun party – how to use the finished product. I made chicken wraps with spinach tortillas and added kalamata olives, pickled red onions, crumbled feta and creamy garlic sauce (tzatziki or ranch would be delicious, too). You could also make pitas, toss the chicken and vegetables into a lettuce or grain salad or eat it over quinoa, orzo, brown rice or whatever grain you enjoy. So many options with this quick and easy Mediterranean-inspired chicken recipe.

Cuisine: American / Greek / Mediterranean

Cook Time: 25 to 30 minutes
Total Time: 35 to 40 minutes
Servings: 6

Ingredients

Chicken

• 1 - 1 1/2 pounds boneless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
• 2 bell peppers, cut into chunks
• 1 cup grape tomatoes
• 1 red onion, cut into wedges

Marinade

• 1/4 cup olive oil 
• 3 tablespoons lemon juice
• 4 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
• 1 tablespoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Mediterranean seasoning or Greek seasoning

Recipe Notes

• I used two large boneless, skinless chicken breasts, but you could use boneless chicken thighs.

• I used one orange bell pepper and one yellow bell pepper, but you can use whatever color you like.

• I marinated the chicken and vegetables for about two hours. But even 15 minutes is fine, or skip it all together.

• I used The Bag Well to hold my plastic food storage bag while I put in the ingredients. It's a great kitchen tool.

• One thing I learned while making this wrap is that I am horrible at folding a wrap (see picture below for proof). Here is a simple way to fold a wrap that I will follow next time.

Here's how to make it: 

1. Put the chicken, peppers, tomatoes and onion into a food storage bag or shallow dish.
   
2. Add all the marinade ingredients. Season with salt and black pepper, to taste.
   
3. Squish the bag around to combine the ingredients and coat all the chicken and vegetables. You can cook immediately or refrigerate and marinate for as long as you have time.
   
4. When ready to cook, pour the chicken and vegetables onto a baking sheet (I lined mine with aluminum foil for easier cleanup). Spread into a single layer.
   
5. Bake in a preheated 400-degree F oven for about 25 to 30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
   
6. Serve as desired. If making a wrap, prepare your topping ingredients.
   
7. Spoon desired amount of chicken and vegetables on the tortilla and add desired toppings. Roll up and enjoy!
