Prep and cook time: 1 hr 5 mins
Serves 3-4
6 chicken thighs, bone in, skin on
2 tbsp olive oil
2 medium zucchinis, washed, sliced into 1 cm thick pieces
2 bunches asparagus, washed, ends trimmed.
1/2 lemon, zested and cut into wedges

Arrange the chicken thighs, skin-side up, and roast for 40-50 mins until the skin is crisp and golden (see images below).
- Meanwhile, bring a large pan of water to the boil and cook the asparagus for 3 mins or until tender.
- Drain the asparagus and toss in with the chicken, coating well with the cooking juices. Crumble over the feta and serve (see image below)
