Method
 

Preparation
  1. Begin by marinating the Greek chicken breast. In a bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Coat the chicken thoroughly and let it marinate for at least 20 minutes at room temperature.
  2. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  3. Once marinated, place the chicken on the grill and cook for about 6–7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
  4. Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
  5. While the chicken is cooling, prepare your fresh vegetables. In a large bowl, layer chopped lettuce, then slice tomatoes and cucumbers into bite-sized pieces. Include halved Kalamata olives.
  6. Add the sliced grilled chicken on top of the salad mixture. Crumble feta cheese over the salad.
  7. In a small jar, combine olive oil, red wine vinegar, minced garlic, dried oregano, sugar, kosher salt, and black pepper. Seal the jar and shake vigorously for about 30 seconds.
  8. Drizzle the prepared dressing over the salad just before serving. Toss everything together until well combined.
  9. Enjoy your Greek Salad with Chicken for a light lunch or dinner.
