Chicken Thighs With Tomatoes and Feta

This vibrant recipe for chicken thighs with tomatoes and feta is a wonderful example of how a few bold ingredients can create a deeply satisfying high-protein meal. By starting the chicken in a cold frying pan, you achieve beautifully rendered, crispy skin that provides a perfect contrast to the jammy, spicy tomato sauce. The addition of harissa brings a gentle heat and smoky depth that marries perfectly with the acidity of the red wine vinegar.

Ideal for a nutritious midweek dinner, this one-pan wonder is as practical as it is impressive. The salty feta adds a creamy finish, with some pieces softening into the sauce while others provide a firm, savoury bite. Serve this colourful dish in the centre of the table with plenty of crusty bread to mop up the juices, or pair it with a light side of pearl couscous for a more substantial feast.

Ingredients for Chicken Thighs With Tomatoes and Feta

  • 6 skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs (about 1.0kg total)

  • 1/2 cucharaditas de sal kosher, y más si es necesario

  • 575g cherry tomatoes (about 1125ml )

  • 60ml harissa paste

  • 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar

  • 3 sprigs oregano, divided

  • 110g feta, cut into (1/4"-thick) planks

  • Pan crujiente (para servir)

Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towels; season all over with salt. Arrange skin side down in a cold large cast-iron skillet. Set over medium heat and cook chicken, undisturbed, rotating pan as needed for even browning, until skin is very deep golden brown and crisp and chicken releases easily from pan, 13–16 minutes. Using tongs, transfer chicken to a plate, arranging skin side up.

Combine tomatoes, harissa paste, vinegar, 1 oregano sprig, and 1/2 teaspoons salt in same skillet. Increase heat to medium-high and cook, stirring occasionally, until tomatoes burst and their juices start to thicken, 8–10 minutes.

Nestle chicken thighs into tomatoes, skin side up. Reduce heat to medium-low, bring to a simmer, and cook until chicken is just cooked through and flesh is no longer pink (an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part near the bone will register 74°C), and tomato sauce is thickened so that a wooden spoon dragged through it leaves a trail, 6–8 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit 5 minutes.

Break feta into large pieces; scatter over chicken. Some pieces will stay intact while others will soften into the sauce a little—and that's exactly what you want. Pick leaves off remaining 2 oregano sprigs and scatter on top.

Serve with bread for sopping up any extra tomato sauce.
