Instructions
Garlic Chicken
Remove the chicken breast from the package and pat dry with paper towels. Place the chicken on a cutting board and slice it against the grain, and then cut it into 1-inch cubes.
Mince the garlic and then combine all the ingredients for garlic chicken marinade in a gallon-sized Ziploc bag. Add diced chicken to the bag and seal. Shake until chicken is evenly covered and place in the refrigerator for 30-60 minutes (or up to overnight). While the chicken marinates, prepare the rest of the ingredients.
Once the chicken has marinated, heat a large frying pan over medium heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and add it to the pan. Allow the chicken to cook on all sides until it is no longer pink in the middle and is lightly browned on the outside, about 8-10 minutes, turning with tongs as needed. Remove from the heat and set aside.
Bowls
Prepare the Mediterranean Roasted Chickpeas and Tzatziki Sauce according to the recipes.
Prepare the produce. Peel and dice ½ of a red onion. Halve the cherry tomatoes. Dice 1 large cucumber (you can also add in the remaining cucumber from the tzatziki) and the bell pepper. Shred the basil.
Fill the bowls first with greens, then add the veggies, olives, roasted chickpeas, crumbled feta, and cooked chicken. Top with tzatziki sauce. Serve with extra olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt and pepper if desired.
