Instructions

Tzatziki Sauce

Cucumber Tomato Salad

• Add all of the ingredients for the salad to a bowl. Stir everything together and taste for seasoning. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Rice

• Combine the rice, lemon juice, dill, salt and pepper together. Taste for seasoning. Use par-cooked rice in a bag that can be cooked in the microwave to save time.

Greek Chicken

• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the diced onion and ground chicken to the skillet and use a wooden spoon to crumble the chicken. Season the chicken with the chopped parsley, all of the spices, salt and pepper.
• When the chicken is nearly cooked through, add in the lemon zest and juice and stir everything together.

Assembling the Bowls
