Ingredients
  

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

1 teaspoon dried oregano

Sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste

1 cup cooked quinoa (white or tri-color)

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 medium cucumber, diced

1 red bell pepper, chopped into bite-sized pieces

1 cup tzatziki sauce (store-bought or homemade)

½ cup feta cheese, crumbled

¼ cup Kalamata olives, pitted and sliced

Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish

Lemon wedges for serving

Instructions
 

Marinate the Chicken: In a mixing bowl, combine the extra virgin olive oil, dried oregano, sea salt, and freshly cracked black pepper. Add the chicken breasts and massage the marinade into the meat until well coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to absorb the flavors.

    Cook the Chicken: Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the marinated chicken breasts in the pan. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is fully cooked, reaching an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and golden brown on the outside. After cooking, remove the chicken from the heat and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing it into strips.

      Prepare the Quinoa: If you haven't done so, cook the quinoa according to the package instructions. Once cooked, fluff it with a fork to separate the grains and set it aside to cool slightly.

        Mix the Vegetables: In a large mixing bowl, combine the halved cherry tomatoes, diced cucumber, and chopped red bell pepper. Drizzle with a little olive oil and season with sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper to taste. Gently toss the mixture until the vegetables are evenly coated.

          Assemble the Bowls: For each serving bowl, start by placing a generous scoop of cooked quinoa at the bottom. Layer the sliced chicken on top, followed by the pressed vegetable mix. Top everything off with a dollop of tzatziki sauce, then sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese and sliced Kalamata olives to enhance the flavors.

            Garnish: Finish off by sprinkling fresh chopped parsley over each bowl for a pop of color and freshness. Serve with lemon wedges on the side, encouraging everyone to squeeze some lemon juice over their dish for an extra zing of brightness.

                - Presentation Tips: To create a vibrant presentation, use wide, shallow bowls. Layer the quinoa and toppings artfully, and consider arranging the vegetables in a colorful pattern around the chicken for an appealing visual.
