Ingredients

– 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 1 tablespoon lemon juice
– 2 teaspoons dried oregano
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 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
– ½ cup Kalamata olives, pitted and halved

– Fresh parsley or dill, for garnish

Instructions

Preparing The BEST Healthy Greek Chicken Bowl is simple if you follow these steps:

1. Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken breasts and allow them to marinate for at least 15 minutes.

2. Cook the Chicken: Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated chicken for about 6-8 minutes on each side or until fully cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (75°C).

3. Prepare the Grains: While the chicken is cooking, prepare quinoa or brown rice according to package instructions if you haven’t done so already.

4. Chop the Vegetables: While the chicken cooks, chop tomatoes, cucumber, and red onion into bite-sized pieces.

5. Combine Ingredients: Once the chicken is cooked, let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. In a large bowl, combine the cooked grains, chopped vegetables, and olives.

6. Add Feta: Gently fold in the crumbled feta cheese so it mixes in with the other ingredients.

7. Slice the Chicken: After resting, slice the chicken breasts into strips and place them on top of the mixed ingredients.

8. Garnish: Finish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley or dill for added flavor and a pop of color.

9. Serve: Dish out the bowl and enjoy!

Creating this incredible meal is both enjoyable and rewarding, perfect for those who value wholesome home-cooked food.
