Instructions

  1. Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425°F. Wash and dry produce. Halve, peel and cut onion into 1-inch-thick wedges. Cut tomato into 1-inch-thick wedges. Arrange onion on one side of a baking sheet and tomato on the empty side. Drizzle with oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast on top rack until browned and tender, 18-20 minutes.
  2. While veggies roast, pat chicken dry with paper towels; place between two large pieces of plastic wrap. Pound with a mallet or rolling pin until about ½ inch thick. Season all over with salt and pepper. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes per side. Turn off heat; transfer to a plate. Tent chicken with foil to keep warm.
  3. While chicken cooks, massage grain blend in package to separate grains; partially open package. Microwave until warmed through, 90 seconds. Transfer grain blend to a medium bowl. Add as much vinaigrette as you like; toss to combine.
  4. Slice chicken crosswise. Divide grains between bowls. Top with chicken and roasted onion. Sprinkle with feta. Place roasted tomato in the center of each grain bowl and serve.
