Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the rice: Rinse the rice under cold water. In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of chicken broth or water to a boil. Add the rice, cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 15 minutes, or until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork.

  2. 2

    Prepare the turkey: While the rice cooks, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add diced onion and cook for 3 minutes until softened. Add garlic and cook 1 more minute.

  3. 3

    Add the ground turkey to the skillet, breaking it up with a spoon. Stir in oregano, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 7-8 minutes, or until turkey is cooked through and browned.

  4. 4

    Prep the toppings: While turkey cooks, prepare the vegetables. Halve the cherry tomatoes, dice the cucumber, slice the olives, crumble the feta, and chop the parsley.

  5. 5

    Assemble the bowls: Divide the rice among four bowls. Top each with the seasoned turkey, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, olives, feta cheese, and parsley.

  6. 6

    Drizzle each bowl with tzatziki sauce and serve with lemon wedges for squeezing. Enjoy!
