INGREDIENTS
3 oz Grilled Chicken Breast
3 oz Herb-Marinated Feta Cheese
1/2 cup Canned Chickpeas
1 medium Cucumber
1 medium Tomato
1 small Red Onion
2 Tbsp Kalamata Olives
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
1 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 Tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tsp Dried Oregano
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Prepare a herb marinade by combining lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, dried oregano, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.
Cut the feta cheese into cubes and gently toss in half of the marinade. Allow it to sit for at least 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Dice the cucumber, tomato, red bell pepper, and red onion into bite-sized pieces. Add them to a large mixing bowl along with the Kalamata olives and rinsed chickpeas.
Thinly slice the grilled chicken breast into strips and add them to the salad bowl.
Add the marinated feta cubes to the bowl, then drizzle the remaining marinade over all the ingredients.
Toss gently to combine all components, ensuring even distribution of the dressing and herbs.
Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed before serving.
