Easy Greek Chicken Salad

Prep: 20 minutes mins
Cook: 10 minutes mins
Total: 30 minutes mins
Servings: 4 servings
Rate Pin Print
Juicy, brined chicken breast pairs with Mediterranean-inspired flavors, complementing the briny kalamata olives and tangy feta cheese.
Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients

Salad Ingredients

  • 7 oz green leaf lettuce, chopped, (about 8 cups chopped)
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved, (170 grams)
  • 1 cup English cucumber, chopped, (150 grams)
  • 1/2 cup Farmer Boy Greek Dressing, (4 fl oz)
  • 1/2 cup fat free feta cheese, (56 grams)
  • 1/3 cup red onion, sliced
  • 1/3 cup kalamata olives, halved, (61 grams)

Juicy Air Fryer Chicken

  • 1 lb raw chicken breast
  • 3 tbsp homemade brine mix
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp Oh My Spice! Lemon Pepper Dill Seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Juicy Air Fryer Chicken

  • Bring 2 cups water to a boil. Add brine mix and stir until dissolved. Pour over ice in a flat bottomed resealable container. Add chicken, then add additional water until chicken is submerged. Brine for at least 5 hours or up to 12 hours.
  • Remove chicken from brine and rinse with cold water. Pat dry on a paper towel, then pound down the thicker end of the chicken breast until they are even thickness across.
  • Rub the chicken with 1 tsp olive oil until evenly coated. Season with salt, pepper, chili powder, and Oh My Spice! seasoning.
  • Air fry the chicken at 380 degrees for 11 minutes, flipping halfway through (sometimes I up the temp to 390 degrees after flipping the chicken for crispier edges). Set aside to cool for about 5 mintes before slicing.

Assemble

  • Divide lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, chicken, olives, and feta cheese (if desired) into 4 serving dishes. Top with Greek Dressing before serving. Serve with pita bread and hummus if desired.
