Ingredients:

For the Chicken Marinade:

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For the Salad:

  • 6 cups mixed greens (such as romaine, arugula, and spinach)
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cucumber, sliced
  • 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup Kalamata olives, pitted and halved
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped

For the Dressing:

  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

  1. Marinate the Chicken:
    • In a bowl, whisk together the olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, oregano, thyme, basil, salt, and pepper.
    • Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, preferably 2-4 hours.
  2. Grill the Chicken:
    • Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
    • Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for 5-7 minutes on each side or until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (75°C).
    • Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing it.
  3. Prepare the Salad:
    • In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, Kalamata olives, feta cheese, and parsley.
  4. Make the Dressing:
    • In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  5. Assemble the Salad:
    • Slice the grilled chicken breasts and arrange them on top of the salad.
    • Drizzle the dressing over the salad just before serving, and toss gently to combine.
