1 Bake the Chicken
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Thoroughly rinse any fresh produce and pat dry. Pat chicken thighs dry. Don't worry about trimming. Excess fat will render while cooking and add flavor.
Combine chicken thighs, onion, seasoning blend, 1/4 tsp. salt, and 1 tsp. olive oil in provided tray. Spread into an even layer.Bake uncovered in hot oven until chicken begins to brown, 10-12 minutes. -
2 Add the Rice and Spinach
Carefully massage rice in bag to break up any clumps. Tear a small slit in an upper corner of bag to vent. Place upright in microwave and heat, 45 seconds. Remove rice from packaging.
Carefully remove tray from oven. Top chicken with rice and 2 Tbsp. water and stir to combine. Spread into an even layer.Top rice evenly with spinach, 1 tsp. olive oil, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper. -
3 Bake the Dish
Bake again uncovered in hot oven until chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 8-10 minutes.
Carefully remove tray from oven. Stir meal until combined, then top with tzatziki sauce. Bon appétit!
