Step 1 Preheat oven to 200°C fan-forced. Heat 2 tsp oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken skin-side down and cook until skin is golden. Turn and seal chicken on the other side. Drain on paper towel.
Step 2 In a large roasting pan, combine zucchini, spring onions and asparagus. Combine garlic, rosemary and remaining 2 tbs olive oil in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle mixture over vegetables and toss to coat.
Step 3 Arrange chicken in pan. Roast for 15 minutes. Gently toss vegetables then roast for a further 10 minutes. Brush tomatoes with oil and add to pan. Roast for 8-10 minutes or until chicken is just cooked through and vegetables are tender. Sprinkle with feta and season with pepper. Serve with couscous.
