Ingredients

8 chicken thighs (about 2 1/2 lb total)

2 red bell peppers

2 yellow bell peppers

1 pint cherry tomatoes

1/2 cup crumbled goat cheese

4 cloves garlic

1 small bunch basil

2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon dried thyme

Salt

Black pepper

Method

Preheat the oven to 425°F.

Wash and dry the fresh produce.

Peel and mince the garlic.

Pick the basil leaves off the stems; discard the stems and chop the leaves.

In a bowl, combine half the minced garlic, oregano, thyme, salt, pepper, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil to create a marinade.

Rub the chicken thighs with the herb marinade and arrange them on a baking sheet.

Bake the chicken thighs in the preheated oven until they are golden brown and cooked through, about 25-30 minutes.

While the chicken is cooking, cut the bell peppers into strips and halve the cherry tomatoes.

In a large bowl, combine the bell peppers, cherry tomatoes, remaining garlic, chopped basil, balsamic vinegar, and remaining olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Roast the pepper and tomato mixture on a separate baking sheet in the oven for 10-15 minutes, until slightly charred and softened.

Remove both the chicken and the roasted pepper and tomato salad from the oven.

Sprinkle the goat cheese over the warm salad and toss gently to combine.

To serve, place the herb-crusted chicken thighs on a plate with a generous helping of the roasted pepper and tomato salad.
