Instructions

In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper.
Add chicken cubes and toss to coat. Cover and marinate for at least 30 minutes (or overnight for best flavor).
Thread chicken onto skewers and grill over medium-high heat for 8–10 minutes, turning until fully cooked.
Assemble bowls: start with a base of rice, add a generous scoop of hummus, then top with grilled chicken.
Arrange tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, olives, and feta around the chicken.
