Instructions

In a bowl or zip-top bag, combine olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper. Add chicken and marinate for at least 30 minutes (up to overnight).
Grill or cook chicken in a skillet over medium heat for 5–6 minutes per side, or until cooked through. Let rest, then slice.
Divide rice or quinoa between bowls.
Top each bowl with sliced chicken, tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, olives, and feta.
Drizzle with tzatziki sauce and garnish with fresh herbs if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

Make it low-carb by swapping rice with cauliflower rice.
Use store-bought tzatziki or make your own with Greek yogurt, cucumber, lemon, and garlic.
Great for meal prep—store components separately and assemble before eating.
