Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar

  • 6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano

  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic

  • 1 teaspoon salt, divided

  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper, divided

  • 3 boneless skinless chicken breasts

  • 10 ounces (6 cups) romaine lettuce, torn into bite-size pieces

  • 1/2 English cucumber, quartered lengthwise and sliced

  • 1 cup grape tomatoes, halved lengthwise

  • 1/4 small red onion, sliced lengthwise

  • 1/4 cup pitted kalamata olives, halved lengthwise

  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese

  • 4 lemon wedges

Directions

1. Preheat grill to medium. Pour vinegar into a large bowl. Slowly whisk in oil until incorporated and thickened. Whisk in oregano, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon of pepper.

2. Coat chicken with cooking spray; sprinkle with remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Grill until browned on both sides and juices run clear (155ºF internal temperature), 5 to 6 minutes per side.

3. Immediately transfer hot grilled chicken to a bowl and toss to coat in the vinegar mixture. Let cool for 5 minutes. Slice chicken on a slight diagonal and return to the bowl to coat. Remove coated chicken to a plate.

4. Add lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes, onion, olives, and feta to the bowl with the vinegar mixture and toss to coat. Remove the salad to a platter or plates. Arrange the sliced chicken over the top and serve with lemon wedges for squeezing.


TIP: For a grilled garnish, grilled the lemon wedges cut-side down until they’re nicely browned, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Serve with the salad and squeeze over it.
