Why These Bowls are So Good
There’s a ton of delicious flavor, mouth-pleasing texture, and nutritious ingredients in these Greek chicken bowls. Your mouth won’t know what hit it! Tender, baked chicken that’s seasoned beautifully with a touch of oregano, garlic, salt, and olive oil. Tangy, bright, lemony rice. Creamy tzatziki, crispy breaded artichoke hearts, a refreshing salad of cucumbers, tomatoes, and red onions. You’d never believe a meal that tastes this good could be so good for you! These are pretty nutritious already, but if you’re looking to meet the needs of a specialty diet, odds are good you can make this one work for you. With a few simple swaps, you can make it totally gluten-free, impressively low carb, or 100% paleo-friendly. Meal prep is one of my favorite things ever, and Greek chicken bowls are a perfect meal prep option. Everything refrigerates really well and it all tastes even better the next day – especially the tzatziki.
Chef’s Tips
If you’re planning to refrigerate the bowls and eat them later in the week, you might want to store the salad and tzatziki separate from the chicken, rice, and artichoke hearts, so you don’t have to reheat those components in order to reheat the rest. You could also enjoy the Greek chicken bowls cold if you want, no judgment here. To keep the artichoke hearts crispy when you reheat them, pop them in the oven or even the air fryer for a few minutes, rather than using the microwave. If you notice some separation in the tzatziki after a day or two in the fridge, don’t worry. The cucumber will release moisture as it sits, which combined with the Greek yogurt can look a little funky. Just give it a quick stir and you’re good to go!
