Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs)
- ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
- ¼ cup fresh lemon juice (about 2 lemons)
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tsp dried oregano
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 4 pita breads or 2 cups cooked rice
- 1 cucumber, diced
- 2 ripe tomatoes, diced
- 1 cup tzatziki sauce
Instructions
- Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper. Add chicken breasts and coat well. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- Prepare Your Grill: Preheat grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates.
- Grill the Chicken: Place marinated chicken on the grill. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side until golden brown (internal temp should reach 165°F).
- Let It Rest: Transfer grilled chicken to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
- Assemble Your Bowls: Choose pita bread or rice as your base. Top with sliced grilled chicken, diced cucumbers, tomatoes, and drizzle with tzatziki sauce.
Notes
- Customize your bowls with additional veggies like bell peppers or zucchini.
