Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut into strips
  • 4 cups broccoli florets fresh
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt plain, full-fat or low-fat
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice freshly squeezed
  • 2 tbsp olive oil divided
  • 1 tsp salt divided
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper divided
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley chopped, optional for garnish

Equipment

  • Grill or grill pan
  • Baking sheet
  • Mixing bowl

Method
 

  1. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat and preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the chicken breasts into even strips and trim the broccoli into florets.
  2. Toss the broccoli florets with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
  3. Brush the grill with the remaining olive oil. Season the chicken strips with the remaining salt and pepper. Grill for 6-8 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  4. In a mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, minced garlic, lemon juice, and the remaining black pepper. Stir until smooth and creamy to make the sauce.
  5. Slice the grilled chicken. Assemble bowls by dividing the roasted broccoli and chicken among them. Drizzle generously with the creamy garlic sauce and garnish with fresh parsley if desired.

Notes

For best results, let the chicken rest for 5 minutes after grilling before slicing to retain juices. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days, keeping the sauce separate if possible.
