- Olive oil
- Lemon juice
- Garlic
- Herbs (oregano or dill)

Instructions
- Season the chicken: In a bowl, mix together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried herbs, salt, and pepper. Coat the chicken in this mixture and let it marinate for about 15-30 minutes.
- Cook the chicken: Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook until fully cooked and golden brown on the outside, about 6-8 minutes per side depending on the thickness.

- Serve and enjoy: Your Mediterranean Chicken Bowls are ready to serve! Enjoy them hot or let them cool slightly for a refreshing meal.
Notes
If you have leftovers, store them in airtight containers in the refrigerator, keeping the tzatziki sauce separate until you’re ready to eat.
