To make this Greek Salad with Grilled Chicken, you will need the following ingredients:
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cups mixed greens
- 1 large tomato, sliced
- 1/2 large cucumber, sliced
- 1/4 large red onion, sliced
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 cup Kalamata olives (optional)
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
To make the salad, start by preheating your grill to medium-high heat. In a small bowl, mix together the oregano, basil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and olive oil. Rub the mixture all over the chicken breasts, making sure they are well coated. Grill the chicken for 6-8 minutes per side or until cooked through. Let them rest for a few minutes before slicing them into strips.
Meanwhile, prepare the salad by placing the mixed greens on a large platter or individual plates. Arrange the sliced tomatoes, cucumbers, and red onions on top of the greens. Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese and Kalamata olives (if using) over the vegetables.
Next, make the dressing by whisking together the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper in a small bowl or jar. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss to coat. Finally, add the grilled chicken strips on top of the salad and enjoy!
