Preparation Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with non-stick spray or olive oil.
- Spread uncooked white rice evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
- Pour chicken broth generously over the rice, ensuring it is fully submerged.
- Distribute the cooked chicken evenly on top of the rice layer.
- Evenly distribute the diced cucumber, finely chopped red onion, halved grape tomatoes, and Kalamata olives over the chicken layer.
- In a separate bowl, combine the Greek-style tzatziki sauce with garlic powder, dried oregano, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well.
- Spread the tzatziki mixture evenly over the layered ingredients.
- Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese generously over the tzatziki layer.
- Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 45 minutes.
- After 45 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes to let the feta turn golden.
- Once out of the oven, let the casserole cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
