Author's Notes

Bowls will keep up to 4 days in an airtight container. For best results, keep the sauce separate until ready to eat.
Cooking InstructionsHide images
step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
step 2
In a large bowl, combine the Olive Oil (1/4 cup), 3 Tbsp of Lemon (1), Garlic (2 cloves), Dried Oregano (1 Tbsp), Salt (1/2 tsp), and Ground Black Pepper (1/4 tsp).
step 3
Cut the Chicken Breast (1 lb) into 1-inch pieces.
step 4
Add the chicken to the bowl and toss to coat (this can be done up to 24 hours in advance).
step 5
Place the chicken on a rimmed baking sheet, lined for easy cleanup if desired. Bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes, until just cooked through.
step 6
While the chicken bakes, make the yogurt sauce. Combine the Greek Yogurt (1/2 cup), Mayonnaise (1 Tbsp), Garlic (1 clove), Dried Parsley (1 tsp), Granulated Sugar (1/2 tsp), Salt (1/4 tsp), and Ground Black Pepper (1/4 tsp). Season to taste.
step 7
To make the couscous, add Water (2 cups), Salt (1/2 tsp), and Ground Black Pepper (1/4 tsp) to a saucepan with a lid. Bring to a boil, then turn off the heat
step 8
Add the Couscous (1 cup), and stir to combine. Close the lid and let it steam for 10 minutes, then fluff.
step 9
To assemble the greek chicken bowls, add ¼ of the couscous, ¼ of the Cherry Tomatoes (2 cups), ¼ of the Red Onion (1/2), ¼ of the Cucumbers (2), ¼ of the chicken, and Fresh Cilantro (to taste) to each bowl or Tupperware container. Top with the sauce or serve on the side.
