These Sheet Pan Greek Chicken Meal Prep Bowls are a low carb lunch idea with a lemon-oregano marinade, and they're ready in 30 minutes!
Ingredients and substitutions
- Chicken breasts – you could also use boneless skinless chicken thighs or even drumsticks.
- Red and yellow pepper – feel free to use another veggie like broccoli, mushrooms, green beans or sweet potatoes.
- Zucchini – swap out for another veggie of your choice.
- Red onion – white onion, yellow onion or shallots would also be good in this recipe.
- Olive oil – or another neutral cooking oil like canola or avocado oil.
- Lemon juice – freshly squeezed lemon juice is best but bottled lemon or lime juice will work in a pinch.
- Garlic – fresh minced garlic or jarred minced garlic would both be delicious.
- Oregano – this is key for the Greek flavour. You can swap it out for basil or thyme but the taste will be different.
- Feta cheese – leave this out altogether or use another cheese like goat cheese or mozzarella.
- Salt & pepper – to taste.

Frequently Asked Questions
Greek chicken is chicken (typically chicken breasts) that’s been marinated in a Mediterranean inspired sauce typically made up of oregano, olive oil and lemon juice. For this recipe, I went super simple and made it a sheet pan dish, so all you have to do is throw things together on a sheet pan and stick it in the oven.
Yes! This is a super healthy lunch or dinner option that you can make ahead of time. It’s low carb and only has 309 calories per serving.
For this recipe, you just have to cook the chicken on a sheet pan for 18 to 20 minutes at 400° Fahrenheit.
Storing and reheating
You can store these meal prep bowls in the fridge for up to 5 days. To reheat, simply sprinkle a little bit of water over top (this combats that leftover chicken taste) and microwave for 1-2 minutes. Add any remaining fresh cheese on afterwards if you'd like, but you're also safe to reheat these bowls with the cheese on top.
Freezing this recipe
Unfortunately, this recipe doesn’t freeze well. The chicken would freeze fine, but the veggies would not. However, you probably won't have too many leftovers with this chicken so it shouldn't be a problem!
If you really need to freeze this dish, I recommend you separate the chicken and freeze it in a glass bowl. You can defrost it in the fridge overnight and then reheat it as per the instructions above, or you can repurpose the chicken and use it for another meal.

It’s per serving – that’s very low in calories for a meal!
Emily says
I’m going to meal prep this today 😁 silly question…do you eat this chilled during the next few days or warm it up? I just do not know how feta does when reheating.
Taylor Stinson says
You can do both 🙂 I typically reheat in the microwave though.
