  • Author: Luna
  • Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

– 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 3 tablespoons olive oil
– 2 tablespoons lemon juice
– 2 teaspoons dried oregano
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon paprika
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 1 cup cooked quinoa or brown rice
– 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
– 1 cucumber, diced
– 1 red onion, thinly sliced
– 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
– 1 cup tzatziki sauce
– Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)


Instructions

Follow these simple steps to create your delicious Greek Chicken Bowls:

1. Marinate Chicken: In a bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken breasts, ensuring they are well-coated. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes.

2. Cook Quinoa/Rice: While the chicken marinates, cook quinoa or brown rice according to package instructions. Set aside when done.

3. Cook Chicken: Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken breasts and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (75°C). Remove from heat and let rest for a few minutes.

4. Slice Chicken: Once the chicken has rested, slice it into strips.

5. Prepare Vegetables: In a bowl, combine cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and red onion. Toss lightly with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper.

6. Assemble Bowls: In serving bowls, layer the cooked quinoa or rice as the base. Top with sliced chicken, the vegetable mixture, and sprinkle with feta cheese.

7. Add Tzatziki Sauce: Drizzle tzatziki sauce generously over the top.

8. Garnish: Finish with fresh parsley for added flavor and presentation.
