Enjoy a vibrant Mediterranean bowl combining crispy roasted chickpeas with tender grilled chicken, fluffy quinoa, and a medley of fresh vegetables, all finished with a cool, creamy tzatziki dressing. This bowl delivers a satisfying burst of flavors and textures perfect for a balanced meal.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup roasted Chickpeas
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
1/4 cup diced Cucumber
1/2 medium Tomato, diced
1/8 cup thinly sliced Red Onion
4 Kalamata Olives
2 tbsp Tzatziki Sauce
1 tsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Drain and rinse the chickpeas, pat them dry with a paper towel, then toss with olive oil, salt, pepper, and your favorite Mediterranean spices (such as paprika and cumin).
Spread the chickpeas on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes until crispy, shaking the pan halfway through.
While the chickpeas roast, season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and a sprinkle of dried oregano. Grill or pan-sear the chicken over medium heat for about 6-7 minutes per side, until fully cooked and juices run clear. Once done, slice into strips.
Prepare the quinoa as per package instructions if not pre-cooked.
Assemble your bowl by layering the quinoa at the base, followed by the roasted chickpeas and grilled chicken. Top with diced cucumber, tomato, red onion, and Kalamata olives.
Drizzle the tzatziki sauce over the bowl for a creamy finish. Serve immediately and enjoy your nutritious Mediterranean bowl.
