Greek Chicken Salad
Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon Greek seasoning
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 2 cloves garlic, finely grated or minced
  • 1 pound boneless chicken breasts, quartered lengthwise
  • 6 tablespoons tzatziki sauce
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 head romaine, trimmed, washed and torn into bite-sized pieces
  • 1/2 cup thinly sliced red bell pepper
  • 1/2 English cucumber, sliced
  • 8 ounces cherry tomatoes, halved
Instructions
1
Combine a small amount of olive oil, Greek seasoning, lemon juice, and minced garlic in a glass bowl; thoroughly blend the ingredients. Add chicken to the marinade mixture and ensure it is evenly coated. Refrigerate the marinated chicken for a minimum of 2 hours, but no longer than 4 hours.
2
Prepare the tzatziki dressing by combining it with a small amount of olive oil, lemon juice, and salt in a tiny bowl. Chill the salad dressing until it is required.
3
Preheat an outdoor grill to extremely high heat and lightly grease the grill surface with oil.
4
Place chicken pieces on the sizzling hot grill and cook for 5 minutes, flip them over, and continue cooking until they are no longer pink in the center and the juices flow freely, approximately 5 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the centers should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
5
Combine crisp romaine lettuce, sliced bell pepper, cucumber slices, and cherry tomatoes in a salad bowl. Drizzle the prepared tzatziki dressing over the salad and mix to coat. Divide the salad into 4 equal parts and top each portion with cooked chicken.
