Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper

  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • ½ cucumber, diced
  • ¼ red onion, thinly sliced
  • ½ cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • ½ cup tzatziki sauce

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken breasts and coat them well. Marinate for at least 30 minutes (or overnight for best results).
  2. Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the marinated chicken for about 5–6 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
  3. Assemble the bowls by dividing the cooked rice or quinoa into serving dishes. Top with sliced chicken and your choice of veggies.
  4. Drizzle with tzatziki sauce and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
