Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • ¼ cup red wine vinegar
  • ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tsp brown sugar
  • 2 cups cooked rice (white or brown)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • ½ cup sour cream or Greek yogurt

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine chopped parsley, minced garlic, red wine vinegar, olive oil, salt, pepper, and brown sugar. Whisk until well blended.
  2. Place chicken breasts in a zip-top bag or shallow dish and pour chimichurri marinade over them. Marinate for at least 30 minutes (overnight for best results).
  3. Cook rice according to package instructions; fluff with a fork when done.
  4. Preheat grill to medium-high heat (375°F). Grill chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until internal temperature reaches 165°F.

  6. Assemble bowls with fluffy rice at the bottom topped with grilled chicken and drizzled garlic sauce. Garnish with extra chimichurri if desired.

Nutrition

Keywords: For added flavor, let the grilled chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing. Customize your bowl by adding seasonal veggies like bell peppers or zucchini. Substitute chicken for grilled shrimp or tofu for different protein options.
