Ingredients

1/2 cup KRAFT Zesty Italian Dressing
juice from 1 lime
1 lb. boneless skinless chicken thighs
3/4 lb. fresh green beans, trimmed
1 cup water
1 small avocado
1-1/2 cups grape tomatoes, cut in half
1 yellow pepper, cut into strips
2 green onions, sliced
1 pkg. (3.5 oz.) crumbled reduced fat feta cheese

Steps:

Mix dressing and lime juice. Pour 1/4 cup over chicken in shallow dish; turn to evenly coat both sides of each thigh. Refrigerate 30 min. to marinate.
Meanwhile, place beans in large microwaveable bowl. Add water; cover with waxed paper. Microwave on HIGH 10 min. or until beans are crisp-tender; drain. Cool completely.
Heat grill to medium-high heat. Remove chicken from marinade; discard marinade. Grill chicken 12 to 15 min. or until done (165ºF), turning after 8 min. Remove from grill; cut into strips.
Cut avocado in half. Blend half with remaining dressing mixture in blender until smooth. Chop remaining avocado. Place chicken, beans and remaining vegetables in large bowl. Add dressing mixture; mix lightly. Top with cheese and chopped avocados.
