Categories     Salad

Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 ½ cups sun-dried tomato and oregano salad dressing
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
2 red bell peppers, halved and seeded
1 head romaine lettuce - rinsed, dried, and torn into bite-size pieces
1 cup black olives, drained
4 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
½ cup sun-dried tomato and oregano salad dressing

Steps:

  • In a shallow dish, arrange chicken breasts and evenly cover with 1 cup of the salad dressing. Cover tightly and marinate in the refrigerator for 20 minutes to an hour.
  • Preheat your grill to high heat. While grill is preheating, arrange lettuce, olives and feta cheese in a salad bowl.
  • Remove chicken from marinade and place on grill. Cook chicken breasts for 6 to 8 minutes per side. Arrange peppers on grill, and baste with the reserved 1/2 cup dressing. (Don't use the leftover chicken marinade!) The peppers will need only a few minutes - be careful not to burn them!
  • Remove chicken and peppers from the grill and, when cool enough to handle, slice into strips. Arrange peppers and chicken on top of the salad and serve with the last 1/2 cup of dressing.
