Healthy Chicken and Wild Rice Bowls

Instructions:

  1. Prep the Carrots: Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Toss carrots with paprika and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  2. Spray with cooking spray and bake until lightly golden (15-20 minutes).
  3. Cook the Rice: Combine rinsed rice and chicken stock in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer covered until liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 12 minutes.
  4. Cook the Chicken: Season chicken thighs with thyme, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Heat a frying pan over medium-high heat with cooking spray. Cook chicken thighs skin-side down until golden, then flip and cook the other side. Remove from pan and slice into strips.
  5. Make the Vinaigrette: Whisk together olive oil, vinegar, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, sweetener (optional), salt, and pepper in a small bowl.
  6. Assemble the Bowls: Divide chicken, rice, carrots, baby greens, and beets evenly among bowls. Crumble feta cheese over the greens and drizzle with vinaigrette.
