Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound chicken breast – boneless and skinless
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup cooked quinoa
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes
  • 1/2 cucumber
  • 1/2 red onion
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese – crumbled
  • 1/4 cup Kalamata olives
  • 1/4 cup tzatziki sauce

Instructions

  1. Start by cutting the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. In a large bowl, combine the chicken with olive oil, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss until the chicken is well-coated.
  2. In a medium pot, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add a pinch of salt and the quinoa, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the water is absorbed and the quinoa is fluffy. Once done, let it stand for a few minutes before fluffing it with a fork.
  3. Heat the large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook for about 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through.
  4. While the chicken is cooking, chop the cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and red onion into bite-sized pieces.
  5. In each serving bowl, start with a base of quinoa, followed by a generous portion of the sautéed chicken. Top with the freshly chopped vegetables, crumbled feta, and Kalamata olives. Drizzle tzatziki sauce over the top.
