How to Make Mediterranean Salad With Grilled Chicken Breasts
- **Marinate the Chicken:** In a resealable bag or glass dish, combine 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1 teaspoon dried basil, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Add 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs total) and marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
- **Grill the Chicken:** Preheat a grill pan or broiler. Grill chicken breasts for 5-6 minutes per side over medium-high heat, or broil 6-7 minutes per side, until cooked through and internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- **Rest and Slice:** Let the chicken rest for 10 minutes before slicing it diagonally into thin strips.
- **Prepare the Dressing:** In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- **Assemble the Salad:** In a large bowl, combine 5 cups mixed greens, 1/2 cup chopped cucumber, 1/2 cup chopped tomatoes, 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese, and 1/2 cup pita chips. Add the sliced grilled chicken.
- **Toss and Serve:** Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine. Serve immediately and enjoy!
