  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 cups fresh broccoli florets
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • For the Creamy Garlic Sauce:
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt or sour cream
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken: Season chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side until cooked through and juices run clear. Let rest for a few minutes before slicing.
  2. Cook the Broccoli: While grilling, steam or roast broccoli florets until tender yet slightly crisp—about 4-5 minutes steaming or at 400°F for 10 minutes roasting. Set aside.
  3. Make the Creamy Garlic Sauce: Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Transfer garlic to a bowl and whisk in Greek yogurt, Parmesan, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Adjust seasonings to taste. For dairy-free, substitute with cashew cream or tahini.
  4. Assemble the Bowls: Divide broccoli into bowls, top with sliced grilled chicken, and drizzle with cream sauce. Garnish with herbs like parsley or basil if desired.

Notes

  • To enhance flavor, marinate the chicken beforehand with herbs or spices of choice.
  • Combine with grains like brown rice, quinoa, or cauliflower rice for added fiber.
  • For extra protein, add a boiled egg or nuts.
  • Store leftovers in airtight containers in refrigerator for up to 3 days, keeping sauce separate until serving.
