Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium boneless skinless chicken breast, about 1 pound
  • 1 cup dry quinoa
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1 cup diced cucumber
  • 1 cup halved cherry tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt, divided
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. Rinse quinoa under cold water. In a saucepan combine quinoa, water, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes until water is absorbed. Let rest 5 minutes and fluff with a fork.
  2. Rub chicken with 1 tablespoon olive oil, remaining salt, and black pepper.
  3. Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook chicken for 6 to 7 minutes per side until fully cooked. Let rest 5 minutes, then slice.
  4. In a blender combine feta cheese, Greek yogurt, garlic, and remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  5. Spread a generous layer of whipped feta into serving bowls.
  6. Top with cooked quinoa, sliced chicken, diced cucumber, cherry tomatoes, and red onion.
  7. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Rinse quinoa well to remove natural bitterness.
  • Let chicken rest before slicing to retain juices.
  • Add fresh herbs like parsley or dill for extra flavor.
  • Store components separately for best meal prep results.
