Instructions

Start by heating up your oven to 450°F (230°C).
Stick a baking dish in there for about 5 minutes while you get everything ready.
Chop the broccoli into small pieces and steam it for ±4–6 minutes until it’s tender, but still green and vibrant. DO NOT overcook, as you will still bake it.
In a bowl, mix the olive oil, garlic, salt, oregano, and basil.
Now, coat the chicken thighs with this mix, rubbing it all over. Let them sit and marinade for a bit, you want that flavor to soak in.
Once the broccoli is steamed, toss it with the finely crumbled feta and the rest of the olive oil mix.
By this point, your oven has heated up, so pull out the baking dish and pop the chicken in there, with the top side down (where the skin should have been, but you’re using skinless), to sear it.
Then, pile the broccoli and feta mixture on top of the chicken.
Slide the dish back into the oven for about 10–15 minutes or as long as you want, but make sure the chicken is cooked through.
Let it cool off for a second before serving it with a side of fresh cherry tomatoes and arugula.
You’re done and ready to dig in.
It’s light but filling, and if you’re into keto, this meal will fit right in. Plus, it’s super flavorful, you won’t feel like you’re missing out on anything.
