Preparation
Cook the Rice
Rinse 1 cup of brown rice under cold water. In a saucepan, combine the rice with 2 cups of water, a pinch of salt, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about 45 minutes or until the water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for 10 minutes.
Grill the Chicken
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with olive oil, salt, pepper, and lemon juice. Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Assembly
Assemble the Bowl
In a bowl, add a serving of brown rice as the base. Top with sliced grilled chicken, tzatziki, hummus, crumbled feta, pickled onion, diced tomato, and a handful of arugula. Drizzle with Greek vinaigrette to taste.
