Marinade

Method

Marinade Preparation

1

Prepare the Marinade

In a large bowl, mix together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, paprika, and chopped parsley until well combined.

2

Marinate the Chicken

Add the chicken breasts to the marinade, ensuring they are thoroughly coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.

Grilling the Chicken

3

Preheat the Grill

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Brush the grill grates with a little olive oil to prevent sticking.

4

Grill the Chicken

Remove the chicken from the marinade and shake off excess. Place the chicken on the grill and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

5

Serve with Lemon

Remove the grilled chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. Serve with fresh lemon wedges on the side.

Serving the Dish

6

Prepare the Salad

In a large serving bowl, combine the mixed salad greens, halved cherry tomatoes, and sliced cucumber.

7

Top with Chicken

Slice the grilled chicken and place it on top of the salad. Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese over the top.

8

Serve

Serve immediately with additional lemon wedges if desired.
