Lamb loin chops roasted with veg, tomato and feta cheese

This dish brings me back to our visit to Greece.  Maybe its the roasted olives & feta cheese?  Regardless, its the perfect summer time meal!  Only takes minutes to assemble; pop in the oven and you are good to go! Have to admit I just gobble up the roasted veg and every time I make vow to add more!

Ingredients (estimation)

2 tsp dried oregano
1/4 c lemon juice
4-6 garlic cloves, crushed  (we love roasted garlic)
4-6 lamb loin chops
2 onions, quartered
1 red pepper, cut into chunks
2 zucchini, peeled, halved and sliced
salt & pepper
8 - 10 cherry tomatoes, halved
1/2 cup of olives
1/4 cup feta cheese, cut into chunks

Directions:
  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees
  2. Combine 2 T of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic and lamb in a boil.  Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour or all day.
  3. Place onion, red pepper and zuchinni on a large baking dish and drizzle with olive oil.  Season with salt and pepper and bake for 25 mins
  4. Add the lamb, cherry tomatoes, olives and feta cheese and cook for another 20 mins; turning th lamb after 10 mins.
