Ingredients

Marinated Chicken:

1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, 2 tablespoons olive oil, juice of 1 lemon, 2 cloves garlic (minced), 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

For the Bowl:

2 cups cooked rice, quinoa, or couscous, 1 cup cherry tomatoes (halved), 1 cup cucumber (diced), 1/2 cup red onion (thinly sliced), 1/2 cup Kalamata olives (halved), 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese, 1/2 cup tzatziki sauce, fresh parsley or dill for garnish

Instructions

  1. Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl or zip-top bag, combine olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken and toss to coat. Marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to 8 hours in the refrigerator.
  2. Cook the Chicken: Grill or cook chicken in a skillet over medium-high heat for 5–6 minutes per side or until fully cooked and golden. Let rest, then slice.
  3. Assemble the Bowls: Divide the rice, quinoa, or couscous among serving bowls. Top each with sliced chicken, tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, olives, and feta cheese. Add a generous dollop of tzatziki and garnish with fresh herbs. Serve warm or chilled.
