The method

  1. 01

    Heat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Pat the chicken dry and season with salt and oregano.

  2. 02

    Toss the chicken and cherry tomatoes with the olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet, spacing the thighs apart.

  3. 03

    Roast for 20 minutes, then scatter the feta over the top.

    Roast for 10 more minutes, until the tomatoes blister. Check the thickest piece: chicken must reach 165°F (74°C). Continue cooking if needed.

  5. 05

    Rest for 5 minutes, drizzle with hot honey, and serve with the pan juices.
