Step-by-Step Instructions for Lemon-Dill Chicken Bowls

  2. Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for 10-15 minutes, turning once until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  3. While the chicken cooks, mix Greek yogurt, chopped cucumber, remaining salt, and dill in another bowl for tzatziki. Stir until combined.
  4. Slice the cooked chicken and assemble bowls with your base of choice, layering chicken, tomatoes, and tzatziki on top.
  5. Serve immediately or store chicken and tzatziki separately in airtight containers for 3-4 days.
