Notes & Tips
Five ingredients, one dish, 25 minutes start to finish, and you land right around 24g of protein per breast for only ~145 calories. That's about as clean a protein-to-calorie ratio as chicken breast gets, and the lemon and feta do the heavy lifting on flavor so it never tastes like diet food. Great for meal prep - portion it over rice and it holds up in the fridge 3-4 days. Want more protein per plate? Add a scoop of Greek yogurt tzatziki on the side.
