Ingredients

For the Chicken:

2 Chicken Breasts approx. 1 lb
2 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
3 Garlic cloves minced
1 tbsp Dried Oregano
Salt and Black Pepper to taste

For the Bowl:

1 cup Cherry Tomatoes halved
1 English Cucumber sliced into thick rounds
1 Red Bell Pepper sliced into thick strips
1 Yellow Bell Pepper sliced into thick strips
¼ Red Onion thinly sliced
4 oz Feta Cheese cut into large cubes
¼ cup Kalamata Olives
2 tbsp Tzatziki or Greek Yogurt
Fresh Parsley and Aleppo Pepper for garnish

Method

Marinate: Toss chicken with oil, lemon, garlic, and oregano. Marinate for 20 minutes.
Sear: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken until charred and golden (about 5-6 mins per side). Rest for 5 mins, then slice.
Chop: Prepare the cucumbers, peppers, and tomatoes into thick, rustic pieces.
Assemble: Divide vegetables into two bowls. Top with sliced chicken.
Garnish: Add large feta cubes, olives, and a dollop of yogurt. Sprinkle with parsley and chili flakes.

Notes

Chicken Tip: For the best flavor, use a cast-iron skillet to get that signature golden-brown char shown in the photos.
Feta Tip: Always buy feta in brine and cube it yourself for a creamier, more authentic texture.
Make it Vegan: Swap chicken for chickpeas and use a dairy-free feta alternative.
