Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 cups cooked quinoa
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1 cucumber diced
  • 1/2 red onion thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup Kalamata olives pitted and halved
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley chopped
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cucumber grated and drained
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • Salt to taste

Method
 

  1. Preheat your grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat.
  2. In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper. Rub this mixture all over the chicken breasts.
  3. Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
  4. While the chicken is resting, prepare the tzatziki sauce. In a medium bowl, combine Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, minced garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, and salt. Mix well and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  5. To assemble the bowls, divide the cooked quinoa among four bowls. Top with sliced chicken, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, olives, and parsley.
  6. Drizzle each bowl with tzatziki sauce before serving.
