Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons Greek seasoning
- 6 cups romaine lettuce
- 1 medium cucumber
- 1.5 cups cherry tomatoes
- 0.5 medium red onion
- 0.75 cups crumbled feta cheese
- 0.5 cups kalamata olives
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Begin by preparing the chicken. Rub the chicken breasts with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sprinkle both sides evenly with the Greek seasoning.
Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken breasts for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they are fully cooked and have an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Set aside to rest for 5 minutes before slicing into thin strips.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the salad base. Chop the romaine lettuce into bite-sized pieces and place it in a large salad bowl.
Slice the cucumber into half-moons, halve the cherry tomatoes, and thinly slice the red onion. Add these vegetables to the salad bowl along with the kalamata olives and crumbled feta cheese.
Make the dressing by whisking together 2 tablespoons of olive oil, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl.
Drizzle the dressing over the prepared salad and toss gently to combine.
Top the salad with the sliced chicken and serve immediately. Enjoy your vibrant and delicious Greek Seasoning Chicken Salad!
