- Add chicken, onions, olives, thyme, oregano, and olive oil to a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Mix to combine and set aside to marinate for 1 hour. (You can marinate the chicken overnight if you like).
- Mix cherry tomatoes, vinegar, honey, salt, and garlic in a separate bowl. Then set aside to marinate for 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 220°C / 430°F.
- Lay 2 large pieces of aluminum foil (at least 70 cm / 27 inches long) crosswise, on a sheet pan. Then add two pieces of parchment paper on top again crosswise.
- Place the chicken in the center along with the contents of the bowl, including the oil.
- Toss the cherry tomatoes on top and drizzle the marinated tomato juices all over.
- Wrap the chicken with the parchment paper and then close with the aluminum foil on top to secure.
- Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes.
- Unwrap the chicken on top creating a nest with the foil and parchment paper. Place back in the oven and roast for about 15 minutes.
- Rest for 10 minutes.
- Serve over cooked orzo or steamed rice. To cook orzo bring to a boil 2 liters of water, season with salt, and boil orzo over moderate heat for 10-12 minutes.
