Ingredients
Lemon Garlic Chicken:
- 1 to 1.5 pounds chicken thigh 4 thighs, boneless, skinless
- 2 Tbsp avocado oil
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- lemon zest of 1
- 2 Tbsp lemon juice
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp salt sea salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
Cucumber Tomato Salad:
- 1.5 cups cucumber chopped (1 large-sized cucumber)
- 1.5 cups cherry tomato halved
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1 cup kalamata olives pitted and sliced
- 1 tsp dill dried or 1 sprig fresh
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 2 Tbsp lemon juice
For the Greek Bowls:
- 4 cups brown rice cooked
- 1 batch hummus
- 1 batch tzatziki sauce
- 1 cup feta cheese
Instructions
Make the Cucumber Tomato Salad:
- Add all of the ingredients for the cucumber tomato salad to a mixing bowl and mix well to combine. Cover the bowl with a lid (or plastic wrap) and refrigerate until ready to use. This salad stays fresh in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
Prepare the Chicken:
- Mix the avocado oil, garlic, lemon juice, lemon zest, paprika, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper in a mixing bowl or measuring cup until well combined.
- Transfer the raw chicken thighs to a large zip lock bag with the marinade. Seal the bag and move everything around so that the chicken is coated in marinade.
- Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes, ideally several hours and up to 24 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Transfer the marinated chicken to a casserole dish or a large baking sheet in a single layer.
- Bake for 24-28 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through. Chicken thighs are best when they have reached an internal temperature of 180 degrees Fahrenheit, and up to 205 degrees Fahrenheit. Insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the thighs to check the internal temperature.
- Allow the chicken to rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing.
Assemble the Bowls:
- Load up big bowls with rice, cucumber tomato salad, hummus, chicken, feta cheese, and tzatziki sauce. Mix it all up, and enjoy!
