  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1/2 cucumber, grated
  • Fresh vegetables (cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion)
  • Cooked rice, quinoa, or cauliflower rice

Instructions

  1. Marinate the chicken: In a bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, minced garlic, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Add chicken and coat well. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
  2. Cook the chicken: Heat a skillet over medium heat with olive oil. Cook chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through (165°F internal temperature). Let it rest before slicing.
  3. Prepare tzatziki sauce: In another bowl, mix Greek yogurt, grated cucumber (squeezed to remove water), olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dill, salt, and pepper until combined.
  4. Assemble bowls: Place a scoop of rice or quinoa in each bowl. Top with sliced chicken and desired vegetables. Drizzle tzatziki sauce over everything.
