A vibrant and refreshing salad featuring a mix of crisp vegetables, succulent grilled chicken, creamy herb-marinated feta, and hearty chickpeas. Finished with a zesty lemon dressing and a few briny Kalamata olives, this salad is a delightful medley of textures and tangy flavors perfect for any meal.
INGREDIENTS
2 oz Grilled Chicken Breast
3 oz Feta Cheese
1/3 cup Chickpeas (cooked)
1 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1 cup Diced Cucumber
1/8 medium Red Onion
1/4 medium Red Bell Pepper
3 Kalamata Olives
1/2 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
1 tbsp Fresh Herbs (Oregano, Basil)
PREPARATION
Prepare the herb marinade by combining fresh lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, and chopped herbs in a small bowl.
Cube the feta cheese and gently toss it in a portion of the herb marinade; let it sit for at least 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Dice the cucumber, halve the cherry tomatoes, thinly slice the red onion, and chop the red bell pepper. Place all these vegetables into a large mixing bowl.
Rinse the cooked chickpeas and add them to the bowl along with the Kalamata olives.
Slice the pre-grilled chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and add them to the salad.
Gently fold in the marinated feta cubes ensuring they’re evenly distributed without breaking them apart.
Drizzle the remaining herb dressing over the salad and toss lightly to combine all flavors.
Serve immediately for a refreshing meal or chill for 10-15 minutes for a cooler salad experience.
