The Greek salad exists in every Canadian household's rotation — romaine, cucumber, tomato, red onion, olives, feta — and adding grilled chicken turns it from a side dish into a complete meal that's ready in 15 minutes. The chicken gets a Greek marinade: olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, garlic, and red wine vinegar. The dressing is the same marinade, just emulsified slightly with extra olive oil. Kalamata olives are non-negotiable — the canned black olives from the grocery store are not the same thing. Use the briny, purple-black ones from the olive bar at Loblaws or the ones in jars from the international aisle. Real feta from the deli counter, not the pre-crumbled stuff in a bag that tastes like salty rubber.

Conseils de pro

  • 💡Real Kalamata olives from the olive bar taste completely different from canned black olives. Spend the extra dollar.
  • 💡Block feta that you crumble yourself has better flavour and texture than the pre-crumbled bags.
  • 💡If you have time, let the chicken marinate for up to 2 hours — the oregano and lemon really penetrate the meat.

Variantes

  • 🔄Add chickpeas for extra protein and fibre.
  • 🔄Swap romaine for chopped kale for a sturdier, meal-prep friendly version.
