HEALTHY GREEK CHICKEN & RICE BOWL
I’ve lost over 120lbs eating high-protein, low-carb meals like this, so I know what it’s like to want healthy food that tastes GOOD! After you make this, you’ll realize eating healthy can taste amazing and still be super filling.
I made this one extra high protein and low carb with my @kaizenfoodco rice, but you can use regular rice, quinoa, cauliflower rice, or brown rice depending on your own goals.
Here’s how I made it:
1️⃣ Add 2 lb boneless chicken thighs to a bowl. Mix with 2 tbsp Greek yogurt, 1 tbsp olive oil, juice and zest of 1 lemon, 3 minced garlic cloves, 1 tbsp oregano, 1 tsp sweet paprika, 1 tsp garlic powder, salt and pepper. Cover and marinate at least 2 hrs or overnight if you can.
2️⃣ Heat a pan over medium with 1/2 tbsp olive oil. Cook chicken about 4-5 minutes per side with the lid on then flip back and forth 1–2 minutes each side until cooked through.
3️⃣ Make a quick Greek salad by finely dicing 1-2 Persian cucumbers, 1 green bell pepper, and 1/2 red onion. Add a small handful of quartered cherry tomatoes, 2 tbsp chopped Kalamata olives and 1 oz crumbled feta. Toss with 1-2 tbsp olive oil, juice of 1 lemon or small splash of red wine vinegar, a small pinch oregano, salt, pepper, and a handful of chopped flat-leaf parsley.
4️⃣ For the tzatziki, grate 1 cucumber and squeeze out liquid (optional). Mix with 1 cup Greek yogurt, 1 tbsp olive oil, juice of 1/2 lemon, 1 grated garlic clove, 2 tbsp fresh dill, salt and pepper until creamy.
5️⃣ Cook or prep your base. I cooked up my Kaizen lowcarb rice, or make your rice of choice.
6️⃣ Assemble the bowl: rice on the bottom, 4-5oz chicken, a big scoop of the Greek salad, and a generous dollop of tzatziki. Sprinkle extra parsley or dill to finish.
If you make it, be sure to let me know what you think on SHREDHAPPENS!
ENJOY! 🙌

I have to stop watching your videos at midnight.
But chicken thighs don't actually cook in 20 min though
Is that rice that you used? Thank you for sharing ❤
but what are the spices?
This is a great channel and the food you show is very tasty from the few I’ve tried, but is there some reason why you feel you have to say “a few easy spices” in pretty much every video? Is that supposed to be a catch phrase? What’s the deal?
