Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Chicken:
  • Preheat the grill or a grill pan over medium heat.
  • Rub the chicken breasts with olive oil, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  • Grill the chicken for 5-6 minutes per side, or until fully cooked (internal temperature reaches 165°F).
  • Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing it into thin strips or cubes.
  • Prepare the Greek Dressing:
  • In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, oregano, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  • Assemble the Bowls:
  • In each bowl, add a generous scoop of cottage cheese as the base.
  • Top with diced cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes, red onion slices, olives, and crumbled feta cheese.
  • Arrange the grilled chicken on top of the vegetables.
  • Drizzle with the Greek dressing and garnish with fresh parsley.
  • Serve:
  • Serve immediately, or refrigerate for up to 1 day if prepping ahead.

Notes

  • Vegetarian Option: Substitute the grilled chicken with roasted chickpeas or grilled tofu for a plant-based version.
  • Make Ahead: Prepare the dressing and veggies in advance, but assemble the bowls just before serving to keep everything fresh.
  • Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 day.
