Coat both sides of each chicken thigh with the marinade, place in a zipper top bag, pouring any remaining marinade into the bag, and refrigerate for at least 3 hours.
  2. When there are 40 minutes left for the chicken to marinade, begin the quick pickled onions. Thinly slice 60 grams onion with a mandolin slicer. Place in a small bowl and cover with rice vinegar and 1/8 teaspoon salt. Mix with a fork and set on the counter for an hour stirring occasionally.
  3. Warm grill over high flames. Reduce flame to medium high, and grill chicken thighs 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°. 
  4. To make the yogurt sauce, combine the yogurt, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 2 tablespoons chopped parsley, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, ½ teaspoon minced or pressed garlic, and 1/8 teaspoon salt. Taste and add salt and pepper if desired.
  5. Microwave cauliflower rice as directed on the package. Divide between 4 bowls. To each bowl, add 4 ounces thinly sliced grilled chicken, 1/3 cup shredded cabbage, ¼ cup cucumber slices, 5 halved grape tomatoes, 1/8 cup pickled onions, 3 sliced Kalamata olives, and one tablespoon hummus. Dress each bowl with 2 tablespoons yogurt sauce. One bowl (as detailed above) is one serving.
