Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper to create a flavorful marinade. Add the chicken breasts, ensuring they’re well coated. Let the chicken marinate for 15–20 minutes.
- Preheat your skillet or grill to medium-high heat. Once hot, place the marinated chicken breasts on the skillet and cook for 5–7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes.
- Prepare your choice of grains while the chicken is resting. Follow package instructions for cooking rice or quinoa, adding a pinch of salt and a drizzle of olive oil.
- In a small bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, a splash of lemon juice, minced garlic, olive oil, and a pinch of salt until smooth and creamy.
- Begin layering the bowls with a generous serving of grains at the bottom. Slice the rested chicken and arrange it on top. Add fresh vegetables such as chopped tomatoes and cucumbers.
- Drizzle the creamy yogurt sauce over the assembled ingredients. Optionally, crumble feta or add a dollop of hummus on top.

Notes
For best results, marinate the chicken for up to 2 hours. Customize grains and fresh vegetables based on your preferences and what's in season. Serve components separately for picky eaters.
