Sheet Pan Sun-Dried Tomato Chicken Bowls. Greek-seasoned chicken tossed with balsamic vinegar, zesty lemon, paprika, oregano, and garlic – then roasted until lightly charred, crisp, and full of smoky flavor. Bell peppers roast right alongside, soaking up all the juices for an easy, one-pan dinner. Finish with fresh greens and spring herbs tossed in a sun-dried tomato vinaigrette. Top it all off with crumbled feta and a dollop of tzatziki. It’s the perfect quick and flavorful meal for spring and summer nights.

Honestly, I feel like I’ve become a bit of a pro when it comes to sheet pan dinners. Chicken, salmon, beef—you name it, I’ve probably roasted it. At one point, I even considered doing a sheet pan dinner-themed cookbook…but it’s been done. So for now, I’m just excited to keep sharing my favorite versions right here.

Personally, I think food just cooks differently in the oven compared to the stovetop. Don’t get me wrong—there are plenty of dishes that are best made in a skillet, but when I can, I love letting the oven do the work. It’s low-effort, mostly hands-off, and always delivers great flavor.

Today’s recipe was inspired by my love of a really good jar of oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes. My dad used to use them all the time—mostly in his pastas and on pizzas—so I’ve loved them since I was a kid. They add such rich, concentrated flavor to everything.

And here’s my favorite trick: use the oil from the sun-dried tomato jar while cooking. It’s usually seasoned and adds so much extra depth to whatever you’re making.

This dinner is Greek-inspired, loaded with fresh herbs, sweet bell peppers, tangy feta, and those beloved sun-dried tomatoes. It comes together quickly and delivers big flavor with minimal effort.

Steps

Step 1: season the chicken

The chicken is super flavorful and seasoned with balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, smoked paprika, dried oregano, and garlic.

Working on a sheet pan, mix the chicken with olive oil, the above spices, the garlic, and salt.

Now nestle the bell peppers around the chicken.

Roast everything together until the chicken is a bit crispy and the peppers charred.

Step 2: the vinaigrette

Drain the oil from the sun-dried tomato jar into a glass jar or small bowl. Chop the tomatoes and add them back to the oil with lemon juice, balsamic vinegar, honey, and garlic. Season the vinaigrette with salt, pepper, and chili flakes.

Step 3: toss up a quick salad

Using shredded romaine or your favorite greens (arugula would be yummy too). Add some fresh herbs, then toss with the vinaigrette.

Step 4: create the bowls

I like to start with some warm rice. Next, I add greens and bell peppers, then the chicken. I usually shred or slice the chicken.

Spoon lots of the vinaigrette over the chicken. Then add feta cheese. You can serve with some tzatziki sauce on the side.

The bowls come out looking so colorful and fresh!

There’s so much happening with this simple-to-prepare dinner. It’s fun to make, exciting to eat, and tastes even better! I’m looking forward to making this over and over throughout the spring and summer!
