Description
This One Pan Greek Vegetables recipe is the kind of colorful, easy recipe I keep coming back to when I want something fresh, simple, and packed with Mediterranean flavor. Tender zucchini, sweet bell peppers, red onion, juicy cherry tomatoes, briny Kalamata olives, and creamy feta all roast together in one pan for an easy dinner, healthy side dish, quick lunch, or meal prep favorite. It is one of my best easy recipe ideas for busy weeknights, light dinners, vegetable side dishes, and wholesome food ideas that still feel satisfying and full of flavor.
Ingredients
2 medium zucchini, sliced into rounds
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
1 medium red onion, cut into wedges
1 pint cherry tomatoes
3/4 cup Kalamata olives
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a large sheet pan or baking dish with parchment paper if desired for easier cleanup.
2. Add the zucchini, red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, red onion, and cherry tomatoes to the pan.
3. Drizzle the vegetables with olive oil, then add the garlic, oregano, Italian seasoning, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Toss well until everything is evenly coated.
4. Spread the vegetables into an even layer so they roast instead of steam.
5. Roast for 25 to 30 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until the vegetables are tender and lightly caramelized and the tomatoes begin to burst.
6. Remove the pan from the oven and scatter the Kalamata olives over the vegetables.
7. Crumble the feta cheese on top while the vegetables are still hot.
8. Finish with chopped fresh parsley and serve warm.
Notes
Use a large enough pan so the vegetables stay in a single layer. If they are crowded, they will steam and lose those delicious roasted edges.
Add the feta after roasting instead of before so it stays creamy and soft without drying out in the oven.
