Bringing together some of the refreshing tastes that make you think of the Mediterranean, this Greek Chicken Tray Bake goes down a treat – it’s so vibrant as well as satisfyingly filling. You may want to wait until we have cooler weather for this one as the oven does a lot of the work, BUT there’ll hardly be any washing up to do AND it’s absolutely worth it for the delicious result. Please read the method ahead as there is a little prep work involved such as marinating the chicken for a little while.
