I’ve lost over 120lbs eating high-protein, low-carb meals like this, so I know what it’s like to want healthy food that tastes GOOD! After you make this, you’ll realize eating healthy can taste amazing and still be super filling.

I made this one extra high protein and low carb with my @Kaizen Food Company rice, but you can use regular rice, quinoa, cauliflower rice, or brown rice depending on your own goals.

Here’s how I made it:

निर्देश

Add 2 lb boneless chicken thighs to a bowl. Mix with 2 tbsp Greek yogurt, 1 tbsp olive oil, juice and zest of 1 lemon, 3 minced garlic cloves, 1 tbsp oregano, 1 tsp sweet paprika, 1 tsp garlic powder, salt and pepper. Cover and marinate at least 2 hrs or overnight if you can.

Heat a pan over medium with 1/2 tbsp olive oil. Cook chicken about 4-5 minutes per side with the lid on then flip back and forth 1–2 minutes each side until cooked through.

Make a quick Greek salad by finely dicing 1-2 Persian cucumbers, 1 green bell pepper, and 1/2 red onion. Add a small handful of quartered cherry tomatoes, 2 tbsp chopped Kalamata olives and 1 oz crumbled feta. Toss with 1-2 tbsp olive oil, juice of 1 lemon or small splash of red wine vinegar, a small pinch oregano, salt, pepper, and a handful of chopped flat-leaf parsley.

For the tzatziki, grate 1 cucumber and squeeze out liquid (optional). Mix with 1 cup Greek yogurt, 1 tbsp olive oil, juice of 1/2 lemon, 1 grated garlic clove, 2 tbsp fresh dill, salt and pepper until creamy.

Cook or prep your base. I cooked up my Kaizen lowcarb rice, or make your rice of choice.

Assemble the bowl: rice on the bottom, 4-5oz chicken, a big scoop of the Greek salad, and a generous dollop of tzatziki. Sprinkle extra parsley or dill to finish.

If you make it, be sure to let me know what you think on SHREDHAPPENS!

ENJOY! 🙌
