Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F and position a rack in the middle.
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together lemon juice, oregano, garlic, salt, and pepper. While whisking, drizzle in the olive oil until the mixture is emulsified.
  3. On a large sheet pan, spread the onions, zucchini, bell pepper, and tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper, then drizzle about 1/4 cup of the dressing over the vegetables and toss to coat.
  4. Season the chicken on both sides with salt and pepper. Nestle the chicken, olives, and chunks of feta among the vegetables and drizzle with the remaining dressing.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for about 35 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through. For added color, broil for a couple of minutes, monitoring closely.
  6. Remove from the oven, spoon the pan juices over the chicken, garnish with parsley, and serve.
