Instructions

Marinate the Chicken:
In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper. Add chicken, coat well, and marinate for 20 minutes or overnight.

Grill the Chicken:
Grill marinated chicken over medium-high heat for 5–6 minutes per side, or until fully cooked. Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Prepare Tzatziki:
In a bowl, combine Greek yogurt, squeezed cucumber, lemon juice, garlic, dill, and a pinch of salt. Chill until ready to use.

Assemble the Salad:
In a large bowl, combine romaine, kale, cucumber, red onion, olives, and feta. Divide into bowls.

Top & Serve:
Add grilled chicken and a scoop of tzatziki to each bowl. Garnish with fresh dill and lemon wedges. Serve immediately or store components separately for meal prep.

Notes

Let grilled chicken rest before slicing to retain juiciness.

Always squeeze out excess moisture from grated cucumber for a creamy tzatziki.

Store the salad and toppings separately to keep ingredients fresh if preparing ahead.
