Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 4 cloves fresh garlic, minced
  • 1 cup full-fat Greek yogurt
  • 1 medium cucumber, grated
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 2 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: Pita bread for serving

Instructions

  1. Prepare the marinade by mixing olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add the chicken breasts and marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
  3. While the chicken cooks, make the tzatziki sauce by combining Greek yogurt, grated cucumber (squeezed to remove excess moisture), minced garlic, dill, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a bowl; mix until smooth.
  4. Once the chicken is cooked and rested, slice it into strips. In serving bowls, layer sliced chicken over fresh greens or grains like quinoa or rice.
  5. Top with generous dollops of tzatziki sauce and your choice of diced tomatoes or olives.

Keywords: For added crunch and flavor, consider swapping cucumbers for diced bell peppers. Try adding crumbled feta cheese as a tasty topping. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to three days; reheat gently with a splash of water.
