·         1 teaspoon of chopped Dill

·         1/4 cup of Chickpea

·         2 cloves Garlic

·         Teaspoon of Oregano

·         1/2 cup of Quinoa

Step 1: Marinating Chicken

Place the 2 pieces of chicken Tenderloin in a zip lock bag. Add 4 oz of plain Greek yogurt, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, teaspoon of oregano and 1 garlic clove (chopped). Let this sit overnight or as along as possible for the best flavor. If you don’t have much time to let the chicken marinate, no worries!

Step 2: Tzatziki Sauce

In a food processor, place 3/4 of the chopped cucumber, 1 garlic clove (chopped), 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, 1 teaspoon of chopped Dill, 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 8 oz of Greek yogurt. Blend until your liking. Also add in any additionally ingredients for your liking.

Step 3: Quinoa

Bring 1 cup of water to a boil. Place 1/2 cup of Quinoa into the water and let it sit until all of the water has been absorbed.

Step 4: Cooking the Chicken

Oil a skillet with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and place on medium heat. Once the pan is hot, place chicken in the pan. Cook for about 2-3 minutes each side, or until cooked through and golden brown. Cut chicken into pieces.

Step 5: The Assembly

Add the following into a bowl in this order:

·          1/2 cup quinoa

·         Cooked chicken

·         1/4 cup of chopped tomato

·         1/4 cup of chopped red onion
