Greek Chicken Bowls

Delicious and colorful Greek Chicken Bowls with marinated chicken, quinoa or rice, fresh veggies, and creamy tzatziki sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • Juice of 2 lemons
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup cooked quinoa or rice
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cucumber, diced
  • 1 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • Tzatziki sauce (store-bought or homemade)

Instructions

  1. Marinate the chicken by whisking together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Add chicken breasts and coat well. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  2. Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from marinade and discard marinade. Cook chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side until internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
  3. Let the chicken rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
  4. Prepare your base by arranging cooked quinoa or rice in bowls.
  5. Chop the cucumber, halve the cherry tomatoes, and slice the red onion into bite-sized pieces.
  6. Slice the chicken into strips against the grain.
  7. Assemble the bowls with quinoa/rice, sliced chicken, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, feta cheese, and parsley. Drizzle with tzatziki sauce.

Notes

Feel free to customize with additional veggies or grains. A lemon wedge on the side adds extra zest!
