Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 1.5 lb boneless chicken breasts trimmed and cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 cup cooked quinoa can substitute with couscous
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved for easier eating
  • 1 cup cucumber diced
  • 0.5 cup feta cheese crumbled
  • 0.25 cup kalamata olives sliced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil for sautéing the chicken
  • 1 tsp garlic powder for seasoning
  • 1 tsp oregano dried works best
  • 1 tsp lemon juice freshly squeezed for flavor

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken pieces and season with garlic powder, oregano, and salt to taste.
  • Cook the chicken for about 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally until they are golden and cooked through. Remove from heat.
  • While the chicken cooks, prepare the quinoa according to package instructions if not already cooked.
  • In serving bowls, layer the cooked quinoa, followed by the chicken, then top with tomatoes, cucumber, feta, and olives.
  • Drizzle with lemon juice before serving for a zesty kick.

Notes

For an extra flavor boost, try adding a sprinkle of fresh parsley or a dash of paprika on top before serving.
