Chicken Bowl with Couscous and Tzatziki

Bowls are a great idea for a tasty and light lunch! What we love most is that you can play with the ingredients, choose your favorites, and adjust them as desired. @SitFit has prepared a Greek version for us with juicy chicken, tzatziki, and couscous.

Preparation process

  1. Cut the chicken thighs into pieces, then mix them with all the other ingredients for the meat. Transfer to a baking tray lined with parchment paper and bake for 25 minutes in an oven preheated to 220°C. Carefully stir once during baking.

  2. Prepare the tzatziki. Peel the cucumber and, if necessary, remove the seeds (only if they are large). Then grate it and sprinkle with a pinch of salt; let it sit for 5 minutes. Squeeze the cucumber well. In a bowl, mix together the Greek yogurt, garlic, oil, mint, dill, salt, and pepper. Add the squeezed cucumber and stir.

  3. Place the couscous in a bowl, add a pinch of salt and a teaspoon of oil, then pour over 1.5 times its weight in water (about 180 g). Stir and cover for five minutes, then fluff the couscous with a fork.

  4. Cut the cherry tomatoes in half, drizzle with a little oil and lemon juice, season with salt, add some chopped mint, and mix.

  5. Now assemble the plate: first spread the couscous, then add the meat, followed by the tomatoes and tzatziki. Sprinkle with a little fresh mint, drizzle with some lemon juice and a little oil, and serve immediately. A perfect summer lunch!
