Greek Chicken Bowls Recipe (VIDEO)

Greek Chicken Bowls bring together all the classic elements of a Greek Salad—crisp cucumbers, ripe tomatoes, briny olives, and tangy feta cheese—elevated with juice bites of grilled chicken and a dollop of refreshing Tzatziki.

The combination is both satisfying and bursting with vibrant flavors. We turned it into a complete meal by adding pita bread. Watch the video tutorial and see how easy it is to turn this salad into an irresistible bowl.

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 Recipe

This 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 Bowls

You 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.

How to Make Greek Chicken Bowls

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

2. 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.

3. 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.

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

5. 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.

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!
