Mediteranean Chicken Sheet Pan Pasta

 



Sheet pan meals are quick and easy.  Just through your
ingredients onto the pan, toss with olive oil, and bake it in
the oven.  Toss in cooked pasta, rice, or other grain for a complete meal.

In this recipe, we decided to use marinated chicken.  You can also use
steak or seafood if you prefer.  By marinating the chicken, you will be assured 
of moist and tender meat.  


Mediterranean Chicken Sheetpan Pasta

Ingredients:
1 - 1/2 lbs chicken tenderloin strips
1 cup La Lechonera Natural Mojo Marinade
4 TBS olive oil
1 cup onions, sliced
6 cloves garlic, smashed
1 cup olive mix, cut in half (kalamata, black, green)
1 cup cherry tomatoes, cut in half
1/2 cup sundried tomatoes
1 large lemon, sliced into wedges
1/2 cup grated cheese
1 1/2  cups Feta cheese crumbles
1 cup fresh herbs, chopped (parsley, basil, cilantro)
1 lb pasta, cooked 

Directions:
1.  Add the chicken to a bowl with the marinade.  Cover and refrigerate for at least 2-4 hours or overnight.  Drain and pat dry with a paper towel.  
2.  Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.  Drizzle olive oil on top of a sheet pan.  
3.  Add the chicken to the sheet pan.  Season with salt and pepper.  Add the onions, garlic, olives, tomatoes and lemon wedges.  Season with additional salt and pepper.  Toss all the ingredients together and coat well with olive oil.  Add extra oil if needed.  Bake in the oven for approx. 20 mins or until chicken is done.
4.  Remove the sheet pan from the oven and sprinkle the cheese on top.  Add back to the oven and bake for an additional 5 mins.  Remove from the oven and toss in the fresh herbs and warm pasta.  Serve
