Ingredients

  • 4 small chicken breasts (about 1¼ lb)
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 1 tbsp lemon zest
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1½ tsp dried oregano
  • 1½ tsp dried basil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp red pepper flakes
  • 2 cups cooked rice or quinoa
  • 2 cups halved grape or cherry tomatoes
  • 2 cups diced cucumber
  • 4 cups shredded romaine lettuce
  • 1 cup sliced red onion
  • ½ cup feta cheese
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • ½ cup grated cucumber
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp minced garlic
  • ¼ tsp salt (to taste)
  • 1 tbsp fresh chopped dill

Instructions

  1. Mix all chicken marinade ingredients and pound the chicken to about ½ inch thickness.
  2. Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes or up to a few hours.
  3. Prepare the tzatziki by combining all its ingredients. Cook rice or quinoa and chop the vegetables.
  4. Cook the chicken in an air fryer at 380°F for 7 minutes on each side, then an additional 3–4 minutes until done. Alternatively, pan-fry for 7–8 minutes per side.
  5. Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
  6. Assemble bowls with grains, lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, onion, sliced chicken, a dollop of tzatziki, and a drizzle of olive oil and lemon juice or tahini dressing.

Notes

  • Use cauliflower rice for a low-carb option.
  • Dairy-free versions work well with plant-based yogurt and cheese.
  • Olives, bell peppers, and toasted chickpeas make great additions.
  • Store components separately for best freshness.
