Chicken Marinade

Chopped Salad

Grilled Chicken Topping

Method

Marinating Chicken

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, mix together olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring it is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours.

Preparing the Salad

  1. 3

    Chop the Vegetables

    While the chicken is marinating, chop the romaine lettuce, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and red onion into bite-sized pieces.

  2. 4

    Make the Dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, and pepper.

  3. 5

    Combine the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine the chopped vegetables, feta cheese, and dressing. Toss well to combine and set aside.

Grilling the Chicken

  1. 6

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  2. 7

    Grill the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade. Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  3. 8

    Rest the Chicken

    Once grilled, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before chopping.

Assembling the Plate

  1. 9

    Chop the Chicken

    After resting, chop the grilled chicken into bite-sized pieces.

  2. 10

    Serve

    On a plate, layer the chopped salad and top with the chopped grilled chicken. Garnish with fresh parsley.
