Lifestyle Approved 

Serves: 2

Ingredients:

Mediterranean Chicken:

2 chicken breasts, 3-4 ounces each (cut into chunks if you want to make kabobs for more flavor)

1/2 cup plain, unsweetened Greek Yogurt

1 tsp. olive oil

1 tsp. lemon juice

1 tsp. minced garlic

1/4 tsp. paprika

1 tsp. dill

1/2 tsp. dried oregano

1/2 tsp. turmeric

Salt and pepper, to taste

Cauliflower rice, as much as desired (fresh or frozen)

Tzatziki Sauce:

1 cup plain, unsweetened Greek Yogurt

1 tbsp. lemon juice

1 tsp. minced garlic

1-3 tbsp. chopped dill, to taste

1 tbsp. olive oil

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 large cucumber

Directions:

In a bowl, combine all ingredients and mix until chicken is coated. Refrigerate and marinate for a minimum of one hour. Grill or bake the chicken until cooked. Serve over cauliflower rice. Cut the cucumber in half, lengthwise and use a spoon to remove the seeds. Slice the cucumber and put in a colander and sprinkle with salt. Let it sit for about 15-20 minutes to draw some water out, wipe dry with a paper towel. Put all ingredients, except the Greek yogurt in a food processor and process until well blended. Stir in the Greek yogurt and add any flavors to taste. Refrigerate to chill before serving.
