How to Make Lebanese Fattoush Salad With Grilled Chicken

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Cut 1 pita bread into 8 wedges.
Arrange pita wedges on a baking sheet, brush with 1 tablespoon olive oil, and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon ground sumac.
Bake for 15 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Let cool completely, then break into bite-sized pieces.
While pita is baking, whisk together 1/4 cup lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large bowl. Add 1/4 teaspoon ground sumac to the dressing.
In a separate bowl, combine 5 cups chopped romaine lettuce, 1 cup chopped tomatoes, 1/2 cup chopped cucumber, 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion, and 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint.
Add the toasted pita pieces to the lettuce mixture. Pour the lemon-sumac dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.
Let the salad stand for 15 minutes to allow the pita to absorb the dressing.
Meanwhile, preheat grill to medium-high heat.
Brush 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 pound total) with 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Grill chicken for 3-4 minutes per side, or until cooked through and no longer pink inside.
Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes, then slice thinly and arrange on top of the fattoush salad.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
