Preheat oven to 425°F. Coat large shallow roasting pan with cooking spray. 

Cut 2 peppers into strips; finely chop remaining pepper. 

Chop 1/4 of onion; cut remaining onion into 1/4"-thick wedges.

In 10" nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add chopped pepper, onion, and half of fennel seeds; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 10 minutes. 

Transfer mixture to heat-proof bowl; stir in olives, cheese, parsley, and zest.

Sprinkle chicken with salt, remaining pepper, and remaining fennel. 

Transfer chicken to roasting pan; place sliced peppers and onion wedges around chicken. Roast 45 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink near bone and vegetables are tender.
