Cooking Instructions

1

Marinate the Chicken

In a bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken breast and coat it well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

2

Cook the Rice

Rinse the basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a pot, combine the rice with 2 cups of water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until the water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork.

3

Grill the Chicken

Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and no longer pink in the center. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.

4

Prepare the Vegetables

While the chicken is cooking, halve the grape tomatoes, dice the cucumber, and prepare the shredded lettuce.

5

Assemble the Bowl

In a bowl, start with a base of basmati rice. Top with sliced chicken, grape tomatoes, diced cucumber, shredded lettuce, tzatziki sauce, and pickled red onions. Serve immediately.
