These chicken gyro bowls have become a favorite in my house because they are so simple to put together during a busy week. You get all that savory, spiced chicken flavor paired with cool veggies and fluffy couscous in one big, beautiful bowl.

I love to prep the chicken ahead of time so dinner is ready in minutes. A quick tip is to make sure you let your chicken rest for a few minutes after baking, which keeps it nice and juicy while you prep the fresh salad toppings.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound chicken breast, cut into bite sized pieces
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup dry couscous
  • 1 cup diced cucumber
  • 1 cup halved cherry tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/2 cup tzatziki sauce for topping

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

  2. 2

    In a mixing bowl, toss the chicken pieces with olive oil, oregano, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and pepper until well coated.

  3. 3

    Spread the chicken out in a single layer on a parchment lined baking sheet.

  4. 4

    Bake the chicken for 15 to 20 minutes, or until it is golden brown and cooked through.

  5. 5

    While the chicken bakes, cook the couscous according to the package instructions.

  6. 6

    Prepare the salad by mixing the diced cucumber and cherry tomatoes in a small bowl.

  7. 7

    To serve, divide the cooked couscous into bowls and top with the baked chicken, the cucumber tomato salad, a sprinkle of feta, and a generous spoonful of tzatziki.

💡 Tips

Store any leftovers in airtight containers in the fridge for up to three days. For the best flavor, keep the fresh salad and tzatziki separate from the warm chicken and couscous until you are ready to eat.
