Steps
- 1Marinate chicken with oil, lemon, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper.
- 2Grill or sear until the chicken has color and cooks through.
- 3Rest the chicken before slicing so the bowl stays juicy.
- 4Build bowls with quinoa or rice, roasted vegetables, cucumber, and herbs.
- 5Add sliced chicken and spoon sauce over the top.
- 6Finish with lemon right before serving.
Grit & Soul tip
Healthy bowls still need contrast. Keep something charred, something fresh, and something creamy.

18m agoThis is the kind of idea I would save for a cold Sunday. The cast iron move feels exactly right.
Grit & Soul know-how
Use the zones
Why it works
A hot side and a cooler side give you sear, control, and a place to finish without burning the outside.
Watch for
Dry the surface before it hits the grate. Moisture has to leave before browning can begin.
Make it yours
Finish with something bright: pickles, herbs, citrus, vinegar sauce, or a sharp slaw.
