Ingredients
1 lb chicken tenders
1.5 tsp smoked paprika
0.5 tsp garlic powder
0.5 tsp onion powder
2 tbsp olive oil
1 lb baby potatoes
8 oz Brussels sprouts
0.5 tsp salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.75 cup feta cheese
2 tbsp tahini
2 tbsp lemon juice
1 garlic clove
2 tbsp water (plus more as needed)
2 tbsp chopped parsley
2 tbsp finely chopped red onion
2 tbsp crushed pistachios (optional)
Instructions
1. Toss chicken with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
2. Cut potatoes and Brussels sprouts. Toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet.
3. Roast veggies at 425°F for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway.
4. Cook chicken in a skillet over medium-high heat for 3–4 minutes per side, or bake at 425°F for 15 minutes.
5. Blend feta, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, olive oil, and water until smooth and creamy. Adjust texture as needed.
6. Spread feta-tahini cream on plates. Top with chicken and roasted veggies.
7. Garnish with parsley, red onion, and pistachios if using.
Notes
Let the chicken rest after cooking to keep it juicy.
Spread everything out on your roasting tray—crowding causes steaming instead of crisping.
Adjust your feta-tahini sauce texture with lemon juice or water for the perfect drizzle consistency.
