1
Mix greek yogurt and lemon juice together with a pinch of salt/pepper. Mix until a sauce-like consistency forms. If needed, add a splash of water to thin it. Set aside in the fridge.
2
Add half of the oil to a skillet over medium heat and add the chickpeas. Cook for about 4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Sprinkle in the paprika and some salt and cook for 30 more seconds. Transfer chickpeas to a dish and set aside.
3
Add the remaining oil to the skillet and cook the chicken for about 10 minutes or until it is cooked through and no longer pink inside. Sprinkle in the thyme and some salt/pepper and remove from heat.
4
Assemble salad by placing the chickpeas, chicken, tomatoes, onion, and olives on a bed of greens. Pour dressing on top and serve.

Meal prep tip: for best results, store prepared ingredients (chicken, chickpeas, olives, onion, tomatoes) together in an airtight container in the fridge. Keep them separate from the greens and dressing until ready to serve.
