Ingredients

  • 1 lb chicken tenderloins
  • 1 .5 oz bag Ben's Original Ready Rice Jasmine (240 grams)
  • 1 1/2 cups Easy Tzatziki Dip (12 fl oz)
  • 6 cups romaine lettuce, shredded (210 grams)
  • 1 1/2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved (110 grams)
  • 1 1/2 cups cucumber, sliced (180 grams)
  • 1 cup fat free feta cheese, crumbled (112 grams)
  • Optional: pickled red onions
Marinade
  • 1/4 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt (2 fl oz)
  • 1/4 cup olive oil (2 fl oz)
  • 1 lemon, juiced and zested
  • 1 tsp dried rosemary
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp oregano

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Whisk marinade ingredients until well combined, then pour over chicken tenderloins in an airtight container, massaging the marinade to coat the chicken evenly. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 2 hours.
  2. After the chicken has marinated, pre-heat a grill to 400°F. Once grill is pre-heated, bunch up a paper towel with a pair of grill tongs, dip it in a bowl of vegetable oil (you need the higher smoke point of vegetable oil as opposed to olive oil), and then run it over the hot, clean grill grates to create a nonstick surface. 
  3. Allow excess marinade to drip off the chicken before placing it in a single layer on the grill. Grill for 3-5 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the chicken tenderloins, until cooked through. Remove from grill and set aside to rest.
  4. While the chicken rests, prepare rice according to package directions, then divide into 4 serving bowls.
  5. Layer lettuce, cherry tomatoes, and cucumbers on top of the rice. Add whole or chopped grilled chicken, then top with feta cheese, tzatziki dip, and pickled red onions (if desired).
