Ingredients
 

FOR THE CHICKEN

  • 1.5 lbs chicken breasts
  • 4 Tbsp garlic
  • ½ medium onion
  • 1 Tbsp oregano
  • 2 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper

FOR THE ROASTED VEGETABLES

  • 2 medium bell pepper
  • 8 oz mushrooms
  • 2 large zucchini
  • 2 Tbsp garlic
  • 1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • salt & pepper

FOR THE TZATZIKI SAUCE

  • 1 cup non fat greek yogurt
  • 1 tsp garlic
  • 1 small cucumber
  • 1 Tbsp dill
  • lemon juice
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil

Instructions
 

  • Cut the chicken into a large dice, around 1-2 inches
  • In a large ziplock bag combine the chicken, 4 Tbsp of minced garlic, ½ of a diced red onion, 1 Tbsp oregano, the juice of 1 lemon, 2 Tbsp olive oil, 2 tsp of salt and 1 tsp of pepper. Let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes.
  • While the chicken is marinating, preheat your oven to 400°F and cut the vegetables into a large dice. Try to make them all the same size.
  • Spread out the vegetables on a sheet pan and sprinkle with salt and pepper, add 2 Tbsp of minced garlic and 1 Tbsp of balsamic vinegar. Roast for 10-12 minutes.
  • Prepare the tzatziki sauce by combining all of the ingredients together and mix thoroughly. Store this in a separate container as you don’t want to reheat it in the microwave.
  • After the chicken is done marinating, heat a grill pan or skillet over medium high heat. If you prefer, the chicken can be put on a skewer but this is not necessary and you can just cook it without the skewer.
