Cooking Steps
Before starting, preheat oven to 450°F. Wash and dry all produce. Cut zucchini in half lengthwise, then into 1/2-inch half-moons. Core, then cut peppers into 1-inch pieces. Peel, then cut onion into 1/2-inch pieces. Roughly chop spinach.
Add zucchini, peppers and 1 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl) to one side of a baking sheet (whole baking sheet for 4 ppl). Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine.
Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with salt, then sprinkle with half the Lemon-Pepper Seasoning. Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then chicken. Pan-fry until golden, 2-3 min per side. Remove pan from heat, then transfer chicken to the other side of the baking sheet with veggies. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, use separate baking sheets for the chicken.)
Roast in the middle of the oven until veggies are tender-crisp and chicken is cooked through, 12-14 min. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, Roast in the top and the middle of oven, rotating sheets halfway through.)
Heat the same pan (from step 3) over medium. When hot, 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then onions. Cook, stirring often, until softened, 2-3 min. Add marinara, spinach and remaining Lemon-Pepper Seasoning. Season with salt, to taste, then stir until spinach wilts, 1-2 min.
Thinly slice chicken. Divide chicken and veggies between plates. Spoon sauce over chicken, then sprinkle feta over top.
