Marinate the chicken:

In a large zip bag, place the chicken breasts, olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes, ideally 4 hours or overnight.

Cook the farro:

Rinse and drain farro. Place farro in a pot with salt and water or stock. Bring it to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer for 30 minutes until the grain is tender. Drain off any excess water.

Cook the chicken:

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat, place the chicken breasts on the hot surface, and cook the first side for 7 minutes. Flip the chicken breast over and continue to cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until the internal temperature has reached 165F. Discard the marinade.

Remove chicken from pan onto a plate and wait 5 minutes before slicing.

Make the tzatziki sauce:

Grate the cucumber on top of a couple of paper towels. Once grated, squeeze any excess moisture over the sink and transfer the grated cucumber into a bowl. Grate the garlic clove in the bowl. yogurt, salt, lemon juice, and dill. Stir to combine and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Assemble:

In a bowl, make a base of farro. Top with sliced chicken, tomatoes, cucumber slices, olives, red onion, tzatziki sauce, and feta cheese. Serve with lemon wedges.
