Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients:
Greek Salad
1 large cucumber sliced and diced
1 pint cherry tomatoes diced
1 green bell pepper diced
½ red onion thinly sliced
½ cup kalamata olives sliced
4 ounces feta cheese small diced
1 recipe Greek salad dressing
1 avocado peeled, pitted, and diced
Baked Chicken
2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon paprika or smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
⭐Preheat your oven to 425F/220C. Mix the dried spices together in a small bowl. Rub the olive oil on both sides of the chicken, then rub the spices all over the chicken.
⭐Place the chicken in an oven-safe baking dish and bake the chicken breasts for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway, until cooked through.
⭐While the chicken is cooking, add the diced vegetables, and feta cheese to a mixing bowl.
⭐Drizzle with Greek salad dressing and toss everything together.
⭐After the chicken has rested for a couple of minutes, slice it up and add half a chicken breast on top each portion of salad. Top with 1/4 avocado, diced, to each salad.
Notes:
⭐I’m using half of a chicken breast per salad. You can always bake more chicken, if you’d like a full chicken breast per salad.
⭐These are some of my favorite baking dishes. Get an assortment for all your baking needs!
