Ingredients

For the Chimichurri:

  • 1 cup Fresh parsley, chopped
  • 4 cloves Garlic, minced
  • ¼ cup Red wine vinegar
  • ½ cup Olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon Red pepper flakes

For the Garlic Sauce:

  • 1 cup Mayonnaise
  • ½ cup Sour cream or Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
  • 4 cloves Garlic, minced

For the Bowl:

  • 2 Chicken breasts
  • 1 cup Diced tomatoes
  • 2 cups Fresh greens (spinach or arugula)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, mix olive oil, garlic, parsley, red wine vinegar, salt, and pepper. Marinate chicken breasts in this mixture for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
  2. Prepare the Chimichurri: Blend parsley, garlic, red pepper flakes, vinegar, olive oil, and salt into a chunky sauce.
  3. Create the Garlic Sauce: Combine mayonnaise, sour cream (or yogurt), lemon juice, garlic, and herbs. Chill in the fridge.
  4. Grill the Chicken: Grill marinated chicken over medium-high heat for 5–7 minutes on each side until cooked through. Slice and set aside.
  5. Assemble the Bowl: Layer greens in a bowl, top with sliced chicken, drizzle with chimichurri, add diced tomatoes, and finish with a scoop of garlic sauce.
  6. Serve or Prep: Enjoy immediately or store components separately for meal prep.
