Ingredients

Instructions

  • Follow the step-by-step directions in our Greek yogurt chicken thighs recipe, making sure to leave yourself enough time for the chicken to marinate. Slice grilled chicken in 1″ pieces and place in a medium serving bowl.
    1.5 lbs Grilled Greek yogurt chicken thighs
  • While the Mediterranean grilled chicken is marinating, prepare the couscous or other preferred grain, according to package directions.
    2 cups Pearl couscous
  • Chop up 1-2 zucchinis, 1-2 bell peppers and a small red onion in 2″ pieces. Toss in 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil and season with a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Roast in a 400 degree f oven for 15 minutes, until veggies are fork tender but still have some firmness to them.
    2 lbs Roasted prepared vegetables
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt sauce
  • Once you’ve prepared the grilled chicken, couscous and roasted vegetables, gather all the toppings and assemble your Mediterranean grain bowl. In a large bowl or meal prep container, add about ½ -1 cup of cooked couscous, 1 cup of roasted vegetables and 4 ounces of the grilled chicken.
  • Top with a few kalamata olives, a spoonful of hummus and sprinkle with crumbled feta. Finish by drizzling the grain bowl with 1-2 tablespoons of garlic yogurt sauce, and serve.
    ½ cup Hummus, ½ cup Low-fat Feta cheese, ½ cup Kalamata olives

Notes

Store all chicken bowl components in air tight containers in the fridge for up to 4 days.
If meal prepping chicken grain bowls ahead of time, portion out couscous, chicken and vegetables in meal prep containers with a lid. Portion out feta cheese, garlic yogurt sauce and hummus in a separate container and add toppings when ready to serve.
Chicken bowls can be eaten warmed or cold. To reheat, place in the microwave on medium-high power for up to 1 minute.
