Ingredients

For the Greek Salsa

  • ½ cucumber diced
  • ¼ red onion diced
  • ¼ cup kalamata olives sliced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Juice half a lemon
  • 2 tsp fresh dill chopped
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley chopped

For the tzatziki 

  • 1 cup coconut yogurt I like the brand, Culina
  • 3 tbsp cucumber diced
  • 2 tsp fresh dill
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • Juice of 1/4 lemon

For the chicken bowls

  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • 1 lb ground chicken
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp dill
  • 1 tbsp parsley
  • Juice of 1/2 lemon
  • Salt and pepper to taste omit pepper for AIP
  • Rice or cauliflower rice to serve

Instructions

  • Combine the ingredients for the Greek Salsa and toss well to combine. Set aside in the fridge to chill.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the ingredients for the tzatziki and set it aside in the fridge to chill.
  • To make the chicken, heat the olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the chicken and crumble until cooked through, seasoning with onion powder, oregano, dill, parsley, salt, pepper, and lemon juice. Stir to fully incorporate the seasoning.
  • Serve the chicken bowls by adding a few spoonfuls of rice or cauliflower rice, and the chicken between 4 bowls. Top with a few spoonfuls of the Greek salsa and a large spoonful of tzatziki. Serve fresh.

Notes

  • Add more veggies by swapping the rice for cauliflower rice. You can either do all cauliflower rice or half and half rice and cauliflower rice.
  • Swap the rice for cassava orzo. This is a grain-free option that still feels like pasta or rice!
  • For meal prep. If you're meal prepping these Greek Chicken bowls, you'll want to keep the rice and ground chicken separate from the vegetables and tzatziki. A divided container is perfect for that! This helps to keep everything fresh for when you're ready to eat it within the next 2-3 days
