Chicken Souvlaki Salad
Prep Time:3 Hr Cook Time:25 Min Total Time:3 Hr 30 Min 
Serves 4
Marinade
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 1/2 tsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 1/2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts
Salad
  • 3 cups peeled cucumbers, cubed (about 2 large)
  • 1/2 cup red onion, sliced vertically
  • 3/4 cup Feta Cheese
  • 1/4 cup Kalamata olives, pitted & sliced
  • 3 ripe tomatoes, cored & cubed (1 inch pieces)
Tzadziki
  • 1/2 cup plain, low fat Greek Yogurt (I use Fage)
  • 1/4 cup grated, peeled cucumber
  • 1 tsp white wine vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp dill
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/8 tsp ground red pepper (optional if you like spicy!)
Instructions
  • 1
    Place chicken in gallon size bag with the garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, oregano, sea salt and pepper. Seal and mix. Place in fridge to marinate for a few hours. (not too long because the lemon juice will start breaking down the chicken!)
  • 2
    Peel the cucumbers, quarter and slice them. Place in a large bowl. Slice your onion and cube your tomatoes - place in the bowl with the cucumbers. Add Feta and olives.
  • 3
    Grill or broil chicken breasts 5 minutes on each side or until cooked through. I cooked mine a little longer because they were large. Cut chicken into 1 inch cubes and add it to your bowl.
  • 4
    In a small bowl, combine yogurt and remaining ingredients and mix for your sauce. Pour the sauce over the veggies and chicken, mix well and enjoy!
Notes
  • Serve with a whole grain pita pocket and top with additional feta and olives, if you desire (this is what my hubby did).
