We love a good Greek salad, from the traditional Greek Salad to Chickpea Salad. If you are a fan of fresh Mediterranean flavors, this Greek Chicken Bowl recipe is an absolute must-try!
Greek Chicken Bowl RecipeThis recipe was inspired by two recipes from Natasha’s Kitchen Cookbook. We took the chicken from our Mediterranean Chicken Salad and combined it with our Classic Greek Salad (also from the cookbook!). These Greek salad bowls are healthy, hearty, fresh, and satisfying. This Greek Chicken Bowl is similar to something we ordered in a local authentic Greek restaurant – that’s where we got inspired to add the Homemade Pita Bread!
Just like with our Fish Taco Bowls or Egg Roll in a Bowl, this recipe is great for feeding family or friends, or you can use your favorite storage containers to meal prep for the week. This recipe makes four chicken tzatziki bowls loaded with flavorful elements that will leave you full and satisfied. I promise you’ll never tire of these delicious flavors.

Ingredients for Greek Chicken BowlsYou don’t need any fancy ingredients for this salad bowl, but loading it with the freshest ingredients is key.
For the Greek Chicken

Chicken – boneless, skinless breasts. Provides lean protein and serves as the main component of the dish. Slicing the breasts lengthwise into cutlets helps them cook evenly and quickly.

Olive Oil – extra virgin to marinate the chicken.

Seasonings – all you need is dried oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper for a classic Mediterranean flavor profile.Greek Salad Bowl Ingredients

Tomatoes – cherry tomatoes, halved, or chopped heirloom tomatoes provide juicy, tangy flavor and a pop of color.

Cucumber – 1/2 English cucumber, or 2 garden cucumbers, sliced for crunch and freshness

Bell Pepper – Adds a sweet crunch.

Avocado – Provides a creamy and smooth texture which balances the other crisp ingredients.

Red Onion – Adds a sharp, slightly sweet flavor, a bit of crunch, and vibrant color.

Kalamata Olives – Brings a briny, savory note to enhance the Mediterranean flavor profile.

Feta Cheese – Adds a tangy, salty flavor

Olive Oil and Lemon – Drizzle with olive oil and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice to add a bright, zesty contrast to the savory flavors of the Greek chicken.

Tzatziki Sauce – Our homemade tzatziki sauce is unbeatable, but store-bought works just as well in a pinch.

Pita Bread – Homemade pita bread is easy to make and adds a fresh touch, but store-bought is also a great option. Omit for a gluten-free version, and check out the substitutions below to bulk up your bowls. VariationsCheck out these ways to customize your Greek Chicken Bowl to suit your preferences and dietary needs, or simply to mix things up each day for meal prep.

Protein: Swap out the chicken for Pan Seared Steak, or Grilled Steak, or Grilled Shrimp

Gluten-Free: To make a gluten-free bowl, cooked White Rice, Quinoa, or Cauliflower Rice are great options to bulk up the bowls without using pita bread.

Vegetables: Add your favorite raw vegetables, just about anything works with the mild flavor of tzatziki sauce. Try chickpeas, radishes, artichoke hearts, carrots julienne, white onion, broccoli, peperoncini, or spinach.

Hummus: A great way to add protein, fiber, and healthy fats to your meal.

Fresh Herbs: Scallions and dill are great as a garnish. How to Make Greek Chicken Bowls

Make the tzatziki sauce then slice and chop the rest of your bowl veggies and toppings.

Marinate the Chicken – In a large zip-top bag, combine the chicken cutlets with olive oil, oregano, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Seal the bag and toss until the chicken is evenly coated with the seasonings.

Cook the Greek Chicken – Preheat the grill or skillet to medium heat. Grill or sauté the chicken for 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F on an instant-read thermometer at the thickest part of the chicken. Transfer to a cutting board and let it rest for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing into bite-sized pieces.

Assemble the Bowls – Divide the salad ingredients—chopped chicken, tomatoes, cucumber, bell pepper, avocado, red onion, olives, and feta cheese—among 4 bowls.

To Serve – Drizzle the vegetables with olive oil, squeeze a lemon wedge over your bowls, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Top with tzatziki sauce, toss gently to combine, and serve with pita bread wedges. Pro Tip: You can cook the chicken on a skillet, on the BBQ grill, in the air fryer, or even make oven Baked Chicken Breasts. For maximum flavor, I recommend marinating the chicken for at least 20 minutes or up to 8 hours in the refrigerator.
Make-AheadPreparing each element in advance can simplify your meal and ensure everything is ready to go when you need it.

Chicken: Marinate up to 8 hours in advance, or cook and refrigerate for up to 3 days.

Tzatziki: Prepare a few days ahead, cover, and store in the refrigerator. If there is any separation in the sauce, simply stir before serving.

Veggies: Chop and refrigerate several hours before serving.

Meal Prep: Cook once and eat all week! Assemble all ingredients in meal prep containers, drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice, then cover and refrigerate for 1 to 2 days. Store tzatziki and pita bread in separate containers, adding salt, pepper, tzatziki, and pita bread just before serving. Enjoy this crisp and satisfying Greek Chicken Bowl, a perfect blend of fresh flavors and hearty ingredients that will leave you craving it again and again. It’s easier than booking a flight to Greece, yet just as delicious as if you were there!
