Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Bake the Tortilla Bowl 🌮

Preheat your oven or air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Make four small cuts around the edge of the tortilla towards the center. Press the tortilla into a small oven-safe bowl or baking dish so the cuts overlap to fit the shape perfectly. Bake for 8–10 minutes until stiff and golden brown. Set aside to cool.

2. Marinate & Cook the Chicken 🍗

In a bowl, combine the cubed chicken breast, 1 tbsp Greek yogurt, lime juice, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Let it sit for 10 minutes to absorb the flavors. Heat 1 tsp olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat, add the chicken, and cook until tender, browned, and fully cooked through.

3. Mix the Tzatziki Sauce 🥒

In a small bowl, combine 1 tbsp Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, chopped fresh dill, lime juice, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir until creamy and smooth.

4. Assemble the Bowl 🥗

Fill your crisp tortilla bowl with the juicy cooked chicken, halved cherry tomatoes, diced cucumber, and sliced red onion. Top with crumbled feta cheese and a big dollop of fresh tzatziki sauce. Garnish with an extra sprinkle of dill and a lime wedge!
