Ingredients

  • 3 boneless skinless chicken breasts, flattened
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced or 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 shallot, minced or 1 tsp onion powder
  • 2 Tbsp dried oregano
  • 2 Tbsp dried basil
  • 2 Tbsp dried dill
  • ½ lemon, juice
  • Salt & pepper to taste

Orzo

  • 454 grams (1 box) orzo pasta
  • ½ Tbsp (7.5 mL) olive oil
  • 5 cups low-sodium chicken broth

Fresh Veggies

  • 2 English cucumbers, sliced and quartered
  • 1 small red onion, finely diced
  • 3 cups cherry tomatoes, halved

Garnishes

  • ¾ cup tzatziki or hummus
  • ½ cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1 lemon, cut into wedges

How to make it

  1. Prepare marinade in a small bowl or medium ziploc bag. Add chicken breast and marinate for 30 minutes, or up to 24 hours.
  2. Preheat the grill to medium-high. Grill marinated chicken for 6 minutes per side, or completely until cooked. Remove from heat, set aside to rest for 5 minutes. Slice just before you’re ready to plate meal prep bowls.
  3. Prepare the orzo. Preheat a non-stick skillet over low-medium heat and add olive oil. Toast the uncooked Orzo for 5 minutes until lightly golden, stirring constantly. Add broth and cook as per package directions. Fluff with a fork before serving.
  4. Divide ingredients and assemble meal prep bowls with orzo and chicken. Cover and refrigerate for up to 5 days.
  5. Heat individual meal prep bowls in the microwave for 3-4 minutes. Right before serving add ready prepared fresh veggies and garnishes of choice. Enjoy!
