Creating beautiful Chimichurri Chicken Bowls with Garlic Sauce is easy when you follow these straightforward steps:

1. Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, combine olive oil, salt, and pepper. Coat the chicken breasts in the marinade. Let them rest while you prepare the chimichurri sauce.

1. Make Chimichurri Sauce: In a separate bowl, mix together fresh parsley, cilantro, minced garlic, red pepper flakes, olive oil, red wine vinegar, and season with salt and pepper. Set aside.

1. Cook the Chicken: Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated chicken breasts for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until cooked through and no longer pink in the center. Use a meat thermometer to ensure they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

1. Prepare Garlic Sauce: In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, Greek yogurt (if using), minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Stir until smooth.

1. Assemble the Bowls: In serving bowls, layer cooked quinoa or rice, corn, cherry tomatoes, and slices of avocado.

1. Add Chicken: Slice the grilled chicken breasts and place on top of the vegetable layer in each bowl.

1. Drizzle Sauces: Generously drizzle the chimichurri sauce over the chicken. Follow it up with a spoonful of garlic sauce.

1. Garnish and Serve: Finish with a sprinkle of fresh cilantro or parsley on top for added color and flavor.
