Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet with olive oil.
Toss the chard stems & onions in a bowl with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season with salt & pepper to taste, & spread onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven until the chard stems have softened & the onion is starting to brown on the corners, about 15 minutes. Toss the chard leaves with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, & black pepper. Sprinkle the leaves over the stem mixture, then scatter the feta cheese over top.
Return to the oven, & bake until the stems are tender, the leaves are beginning to crisp, & the feta is melted and golden, about 20 minutes.
