How to Make Citrus & Spice Glazed Chicken with Feta

1. Marinade Prep

Season the chicken liberally with salt and pepper. In a large mixing bowl, combine garlic, honey, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and 1/4 teaspoon red-pepper flakes. Using your hands, toss the chicken in the mixture, ensuring an even coat. Add rosemary and lemon slices to the bowl, tossing again to distribute. Allow to marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes, or refrigerate for up to 8 hours.

2. Oven Setup

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit (220 degrees Celsius). Prepare a sheet pan with a silicone liner or parchment paper.

3. Roasting

Arrange the chicken and lemon slices in a single layer on the pan, inserting the rosemary sprigs among them. Drizzle with additional olive oil. Roast for 20 minutes, then use tongs to turn the chicken and stir the lemons.

4. Adding Feta

Scatter feta cheese over the chicken. Continue roasting for another 20 to 25 minutes, until the chicken is well-browned and reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit (74 degrees Celsius) when checked with a thermometer.

5. To Serve

Garnish with your choice of chopped fresh herbs and an optional sprinkle of red-pepper flakes.
