Instructions

Prepare the Chicken:
Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil. Grill over medium-high heat for 6-7 minutes per side, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Slice the chicken once cooked.
Cook the Broccoli:
Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Sauté the broccoli for 5-7 minutes, or until tender-crisp. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Make the Creamy Garlic Sauce:
In a small bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, garlic, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and parsley. Add salt and pepper to taste. Thin with water if necessary.
Assemble the Bowls:
Place the sautéed broccoli in bowls and top with sliced grilled chicken. Drizzle with creamy garlic sauce and serve!

Notes

For extra crunch, sprinkle with chopped walnuts or almonds before serving.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop.
If you prefer a tangier sauce, add a little more lemon juice or Dijon mustard.
