Instructions

Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper. Add chicken cubes and toss to coat. Let marinate at least 20 minutes.
Cook the Chicken: Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook chicken 8–10 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden and cooked through.
Make the Garlic Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together yogurt, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, and salt until smooth.
Assemble the Bowls: Divide rice into bowls. Top with chicken, cucumber, tomatoes, red onion, and olives. Drizzle generously with garlic sauce.
