Background
I always bake/roast more chicken than I need for just one meal because the leftover can be used for other, quick & easy meals later in the week. This Greek salad with chicken is a perfect example - ready in just 10 minutes, yummy, healthy and filling. Ideal for lunch, light supper or even a picnic.
Ingredients
- 1 cup grilled/roasted chicken chunks
- ½ cucumber
- 1 handful of cherry tomatoes or 3 ripe tomatoes
- 1 handful jarred black olives, pitted and sliced
- 6 spring onions or 1 small red onion, chopped
- ½ Romano red or yellow pepper (optional)
- 3 Tbsp olive oil
- Juice of ½ lemon
- 50g feta cheese
- 1 Tbsp chopped mint
- 1 Tbsp chopped parsley
Instructions
- Cut the cucumber half vertically and scoop out the seeds. Cut the flesh into half- moon shapes and put these in a large serving dish.
- Cut the tomatoes in half, slice the olives and spring onion/onion, and chop the red pepper, if used. Add all to the cucumber.
- Add the chicken pieces (the chunks should be bite-sized).
- Mix the olive oil with the lemon juice and pour over the salad. Crumble the feta over it, and add the chopped herbs. Toss, season to taste and serve.
