Using WordPress.com API to retrieve featured images

Simple: Add ?_embed to the url query string.

Eg: /wp-json/wp/v2/posts?_embed=true (_embed will work too )

You will then find a property within each post in the JSON called _embedded which will contain all the info you need for Featured Image. Also your taxonomies/categories/tags etc.
