Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 1 lb)
  • 1 cup plain full-fat Greek yogurt
  • 1 medium cucumber, diced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 1 cup quinoa
  • 2 cups water or broth
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • Fresh dill or mint for tzatziki

Instructions

  1. 1. Marinate the Chicken: In a large bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and oregano. Add chicken pieces and coat well. Marinate in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
  2. 2. Prepare Quinoa: Rinse quinoa under cold water. In a medium pot, combine quinoa and water or broth. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes until liquid is absorbed.
  3. 3. Cook the Chicken: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat with a splash of olive oil. Cook marinated chicken for about 5-7 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
  4. 4. Make Tzatziki Sauce: Combine Greek yogurt, diced cucumber, minced garlic, lemon juice, dill or mint, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl until smooth.
  5. 5. Assemble Your Bowl: Start with a base of quinoa in your serving bowl; layer on the cooked chicken and fresh veggies like diced tomatoes or bell peppers. Drizzle with tzatziki sauce before serving.
