Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
  • Remove the leaves from the oregano and thyme sprigs and finely chop. Toss the chopped herbs together in a small bowl and set aside.
  • Place the chicken and tomatoes in a large roasting pan or a 9-by 13-inch (23-by 33-cm) baking dish. Drizzle with the oil and toss to coat. Arrange in a single layer with the chicken skin-side up, then season with the salt and pepper.
  • Scatter in the olives and tuck the garlic and lemon wedges around the thighs and tomatoes. Sprinkle the chopped oregano and thyme over the chicken.
  • Bake for 45 minutes. Baste the chicken with the pan juices, then bake until the chicken is cooked through to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C), about 20 minutes more. Baste once more, then set the broiler to high and broil for 2 to 3 minutes, rotating the pan once, and keeping a close eye to prevent burning.
  • Sprinkle on the feta and parsley and serve directly from the roasting pan, or transfer to a large serving platter and serve the pan juices alongside.
