Instructions

2-serving instructions (4-serving modifications in red)

Wash produce before use

1

Prep and start roasting the chicken

Heat the oven to 425°F. 

  • Pat the chicken dry with a paper towel; season lightly with salt.

On one end of a sheet pan [on 1 sheet pan], place the chicken and drizzle with 2 to 3 teaspoons oil. Roast until starting to brown but not yet cooked through, about 10 minutes. Carefully remove the pan from the oven and turn the chicken. Meanwhile, prepare the vegetables.

2

Prep the vegetables

  • Snap off the woody ends from the asparagus. 
  • Trim the root ends from the scallions.
  • Leaving the tomatoes on the vine, snip the vine in half. Drizzle the tomatoes with 2 to 3 teaspoons oil and season with salt and pepper.

In a large bowl, toss the asparagus and scallions with 1 to 2 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper.

3

Roast the vegetables; finish roasting the chicken

On the other end of the sheet pan [on a 2nd sheet pan], spread the asparagus, scallions, and tomatoes in an even layer. Roast until the vegetables are tender and the chicken is cooked through, 12 to 14 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare the yogurt-feta smear.

4

Make the yogurt-feta smear

  • Coarsely chop the dill.
  • Remove any pulp from the preserved lemon and discard; finely chop the peel.

In a small bowl, stir together the yogurt-feta base, Greek yogurt, dill, and half the preserved lemon peel. Season lightly to taste with salt and pepper and more preserved lemon, if desired.

Serve

Smear the yogurt-feta mixture on individual plates and top with the asparagus, scallions, and tomatoes. Serve the chicken alongside.
