Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 400°F (200°C). Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and paprika. Grill the chicken for 6–7 minutes per side, until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and are nicely charred. Remove from the grill and let rest before slicing into strips.
  2. Set up a steamer basket over boiling water. Add fresh broccoli florets and steam for about 4–5 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp. Remove from heat and set aside.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, light mayonnaise, minced garlic, and lemon juice. Whisk until smooth and creamy, adjusting with water as needed until the desired thickness is reached.
  4. Assemble the bowls by dividing cooked brown rice into four bowls, layering with sliced grilled chicken, steamed broccoli, and drizzling the creamy garlic sauce over the top.
