Ingredients:
For the Chicken:
2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
For the Bowls:

Instructions:
Prepare the Chicken: In a large bowl, combine the chicken, olive oil, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat.
Grill the Chicken: Grill the chicken over medium heat for 5-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through. Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing.
Make the Cilantro Yogurt Sauce: In a small bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, cilantro, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
Assemble the Bowls: Divide the couscous between two bowls. Top with the sliced chicken, cucumber, red onion, olives, and feta cheese. Drizzle with the Cilantro Yogurt Sauce.
Tips:
For a spicier dish, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the chicken seasoning.
You can use any type of cooked grain you like, such as rice or quinoa.
Serve the bowls with your favorite sides, such as pita bread or hummus.
