Chicken Tzatziki Bowl
If you love chicken gyros as much as I do, then I guarantee you’ll love this chicken tzatziki bowl. It’s has all the delicious flavor of a gyro but in bowl form, making it the perfect dinner for busy weeknights. I love that I can marinate the chicken and prep the veggies and rice ahead of time, so all I have to do is assemble these chicken tzatziki bowls the day of. So easy!
These chicken tzatziki bowls start with a base of steamed white rice topped with fresh chopped veggies, creamy cheese, and marinated chicken. Finished off with creamy tzatziki sauce, they’re the ultimate Greek dinner.
