Sliced Greek Chicken Salad
4 servings
15 minutes
Chopped Greek salad with chicken is a harmonious blend of fresh vegetables, tender chicken fillet, and tangy feta, dressed with aromatic vinegar and olive oil. This salad is inspired by traditional Greek cuisine where freshness and simplicity play key roles. The vibrant flavors of ripe tomatoes, crunchy cucumbers, zesty red onions, and olives create a rich texture complemented by the tenderness of chicken and creamy feta taste. The dressing made from wine vinegar, oregano, garlic, and spices adds a subtle tang and Mediterranean depth of flavor. Perfect as a light dinner or nutritious lunch, it pairs wonderfully with crusty bread and white wine.
