Step-by-Step Instructions for Greek Chicken Bowls

  2. Prepare the tzatziki sauce by combining Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, minced garlic, fresh dill, and a splash of lemon juice in a bowl. Stir well and set aside.
  3. Cook rice or quinoa according to package instructions. Fluff with a fork when done.
  4. Preheat air fryer to 380°F. Cook marinated chicken for 7 minutes, flip, and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
  5. Assemble the bowls by layering cooked rice or quinoa, grilled chicken, mixed vegetables, and a dollop of tzatziki. Drizzle with olive oil and fresh lemon juice.
