After a long work day, what can better than a bowl of healthy and refreshing salad with some yummy grilled chicken breasts? Also, this dish is made in just 40 minutes, it's easy to prepare, flavorful and nutritious. And the best part is the salty, crumbly feta cheese in it 🧀 ! This recipe is a winner, isn't it?
You can make this fresh and colorful Greek salad in no time: just chop some sweet and ripe tomatoes, cucumbers, bell peppers, red onions, Kalamata olives and salty feta cheese in a large bowl and mix them with the dressing. Super easy and simple.
Serve this amazing salad with grilled or baked meat, or on it's own. We like t eat Greek salad with simple grilled chicken breasts, they go perfectly good together. To save time and be more efficient, I usually use the salad dressing to marinade the chicken breast plus I rub the chicken generous with garlic, salt and pepper. After 30 minutes of soaking in the marinade, grill, bake or pan-fry the chicken breasts.
The flavours in this salad are wonderful. Enjoy this nutritious authentic Greek cuisine with garlicky grilled chicken!
