Expert Tips

  • Tip 1
    This bowl would work well with leftover slices of steak in place of the chicken.
  • Tip 2
    The toppings on this bowl are endless. Kalamata olives, sliced red onion, sliced cucumber and harissa (a spicy red pepper sauce), would also be wonderful additions to the topping choices.
