Notes

Serve Greek Chicken Bowls in large bowls or plates. Customize each bowl with extra toppings like olives or additional vegetables according to preference. This dish is great warm but can also be enjoyed cold as a refreshing salad. For extra flavor, let the chicken marinate overnight. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F. Feel free to add other vegetables like bell peppers or spinach for more color and nutrients. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for about 3 days, keeping tzatziki sauce separate until serving.
