Ingredients
  

For the Chicken
  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 0.5 tsp black pepper
For the Bowls
  • 2 cups cooked quinoa
  • 1 cup chopped cucumber
  • 1 cup chopped tomatoes
  • 0.5 cup kalamata olives pitted and halved
  • 0.5 cup crumbled feta cheese
For the Tzatziki Sauce
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 0.5 cup grated cucumber peeled and seeds removed
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh dill chopped
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 0.25 tsp salt

Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Large bowl
  • Small bowl

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the chicken pieces with olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
  3. Spread the seasoned chicken in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  4. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center.
  5. While the chicken is baking, prepare the tzatziki sauce. In a small bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, minced garlic, chopped dill, lemon juice, and salt. Stir well.
  6. To assemble the bowls, divide the cooked quinoa among four meal prep containers. Top with the baked chicken, chopped cucumber, tomatoes, olives, and feta cheese.
  7. Spoon a portion of the tzatziki sauce over each bowl, or store it separately to add just before serving.
  8. Seal the containers and refrigerate for up to 4 days.

Notes

You can substitute chicken breast for thighs if preferred. Adjust cooking time as needed. Other vegetables like bell peppers or red onion can be added to the bowls. For a dairy-free option, use a dairy-free yogurt for the sauce.
