Greek Chicken Bowls (Meal Prep Easy)

boneless (skinless chicken breasts)

olive oil

Tbs garlic (minced (Note, adjust to preference))

lemon juice

Tbs red wine vinegar

Tbs oregano

plain Greek yogurt

salt and black pepper (to taste)

cucumbers

Tbs minced garlic

oregano

English cucumber (finely diced)

tsp garlic

Tbs dill weed (or 1 Tbs fresh dill, chopped fine)

lemon

tsp chopped fresh mint (optional)

Salt and pepper

brown rice

cherry tomatoes (halved)

onion

In a large plastic zip bag, combine olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, oregano, greek yogurts and salt and pepper. Massage to mix.

Add chicken into the bag.

Massage to make sure chicken is full covered and marinate for at least 20 minutes, up to 12 hours.

Drain the chicken from the marinade, discarding the marinade.

In a skillet, heat some olive oil over medium-high heat.

I used my Anolon Skillet which I love because it heats evenly, is metal utensil friendly, and can be used in the oven up to 400 degrees.

Add chicken when it is hot, and cook, flipping part way through. Cook approximately 3-4 minutes per side. Cooking time depends on thickness and size of the chicken. Cook until internal temp is 165 degrees.

Remove from pan, and let cool.

Once cool, cut into bite sized pieces. Just make sure you let it cool, or all the juice will run out.

Meanwhile, make cucumber salad by chunking the cucumbers, and tossing in a bowl with the lemon juice, olive oil, red wine vinegar, garlic, and oregano. Set aside

Make tzatziki sauce by combining the Greek yogurt, cucumber, garlic, dill weed, lemon juice, lemon zest  in a small bowl; season with salt and pepper. And add mint (optional)

Refrigerate while assembling your bowls.

Cook brown rice according to package directions. When finished cooking, divide between meal prep containers, 1/2 cup in each container, halve cherry tomatoes, and mix with red onion slices. Divide amongst the bowls.

Top with chicken, cucumber salad, and some tzatziki sauce.

Keep for 3- 5 days in airtight container, serve cold!

Greek Chicken Meal Prep Bowls

Healthy and hearty Greek Chicken Power Bowls are loaded with tasty flavors. Juicy grilled chicken, quinoa, cucumber salad, tomatoes, and creamy tzatziki dressing all in one delicious bowl!

Greek Chicken Power Bowls

quinoa

feta cheese ((I use reduced fat))

plain fat free Greek yogurt

cucumber

salt (or

black pepper (or

juice of ½ lemon

dill

garlic powder

chicken breasts ((or 3-4 chicken thighs))

basil

salt and pepper

½ red onion (chopped)

cherry or grape tomatoes (halved)

chickpeas

Italian seasoning

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Toss together chickpeas, olive oil, salt and pepper, and dried Italian seasoning. Arrange in a single layer on a baking sheet and cook in preheated oven for 15 minutes.&nbsp;

Prepare the dressing (if you can do this in advance, the dressing is even tastier after chilling for several hours, but still delicious when made fresh) combining all dressing ingredients in a food processor and blend until smooth. Cover and chill until ready to use.&nbsp;

To prepare the chicken, stir together oil, oregano, basil, salt and pepper, and garlic powder. Brush on both sides of chicken. Grill over medium heat 5-8 minutes on each side or until cooked through. Allow to rest for a couple of minutes before dicing.&nbsp;

Stir together all cucumber salad ingredients in a bowl. In a second bowl stir together tomato salad ingredients.&nbsp;

Arrange bowls by placing quinoa on the bottom and topping with chicken, cucumber salad, tomato salad, roasted chickpeas, crumbled feta cheese, and drizzle with dressing. Serve immediately.&nbsp;

To grill chicken:&nbsp;Preheat grill to medium heat. Brush grill with oil to prevent sticking.&nbsp;Place chicken on the grill.

Greek Chicken Bowls Recipe

lb chicken breast (2 boneless, skinless breasts, sliced lengthwise into 4 cutlets)

Tbsp extra virgin olive oil

oregano leaves

½ tsp fine sea salt

tsp black pepper

cherry tomatoes (halved, or chopped heirloom tomatoes)

½ English cucumber (or 2 garden cucumbers, sliced)

bell pepper (chopped)

avocado (chopped)

red onion (thinly sliced)

olives

feta cheese ((about 1 cup diced))

salt and freshly cracked black pepper (added to taste)

tzatziki sauce (or more to taste, divided)

bread

Make the tzatziki sauce then slice and chop the rest of your bowl veggies and toppings.

Marinate the Chicken - In a large zip-top bag, combine the chicken cutlets with olive oil, oregano, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Seal the bag and toss until the chicken is evenly coated with the seasonings.

Cook the Greek Chicken - Preheat the grill or skillet to medium heat. Grill or sauté the chicken for 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F on an instant-read thermometer at the thickest part of the chicken. Transfer to a cutting board and let it rest for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing into bite-sized pieces.

Assemble the Bowls - Divide the salad ingredients into 4 large shallow bowls: chopped chicken, tomatoes, cucumber, bell pepper, avocado, red onion, olives, and feta cheese.

To Serve - Drizzle the vegetables with olive oil, squeeze a lemon wedge over your bowls, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Top with tzatziki sauce, toss gently to combine and serve with pita bread wedges.

This was awesome and easy.  Thanks so much!  Definitely a “make again”.

Delicious 😋 I served Greek potatoes with the bowl 💕

This was delicious!!! I added the Romain lettuce. Your recipe for tzatik sauce is fantastic. Keep up sending your great recipes.

I love the Greek salad bowl. I added Romaine lettuce.  It tasted like the Greek salads I used to get Pappas's Restaurant in Tarpon Springs, FL. Unfortunately, they are out of business now.

I made this tonight and it was amazing!! It will go on the rotation. Thanks.
