Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup quinoa
  • 1 red bell pepper sliced
  • 1 zucchini sliced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1/4 cup Kalamata olives pitted and halved
  • 1/4 cup feta cheese crumbled
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • Tahini sauce for drizzling (optional)

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Prepare the quinoa according to package instructions; usually around 15 minutes for fluffy results. Rinse under cold water before cooking.
  3. While the quinoa cooks, toss the sliced chicken, red bell pepper, zucchini, cherry tomatoes, and olives in a bowl with olive oil, oregano, salt, and pepper.
  4. Lay the chicken and vegetables out on a lined baking sheet in a single layer. Roast for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the veggies are tender.
  5. Once done, remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before slicing the chicken into bite-size pieces.
  6. Assemble your meal prep bowls by adding a base of quinoa, followed by the roasted chicken and vegetables. Sprinkle with crumbled feta and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
  7. Drizzle with tahini sauce and serve immediately, or portion into meal prep containers for the week. These can be enjoyed warm or cold.

Notes

For optimal storage, keep the dressing separate until serving. These bowls are best enjoyed within 4 days when stored in the fridge.
