There is something so satisfying about a fresh Greek bowl filled with vibrant vegetables and tender chicken. It is a light and nutritious meal that feels like a real treat without taking all evening to put together in the kitchen.

My top tip for this recipe is to prep your cucumber and tomato salad while the chicken is in the oven. It saves so much time and ensures everything is ready to serve the moment your timer goes off.

🧺 Ingredients

1 pound chicken breast, cut into bite sized pieces
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon dried oregano
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 cup cooked quinoa or brown rice
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1 cucumber, diced
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
1/4 cup kalamata olives, pitted
4 tablespoons tzatziki sauce

👩‍🍳Instructions

1
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
2
In a medium bowl, toss the chicken pieces with olive oil, oregano, minced garlic, and lemon juice until well coated.
3
Spread the chicken in a single layer on a lined baking sheet.
4
Bake the chicken for 12 minutes or until it is cooked through and golden.
5
While the chicken bakes, divide your cooked grains into four bowls.
6
Top each bowl with the fresh tomatoes, cucumber, feta cheese, and olives.
7
Add the warm chicken to each bowl once it comes out of the oven.
8
Finish each serving with a generous dollop of tzatziki sauce before enjoying.

💡 Tips

Store any leftover chicken and veggies in separate airtight containers in the fridge for up to three days. If you want to make this meal ahead of time for lunches, just leave the tzatziki sauce off until you are ready to eat.
