Steps:
- Add the chicken tenders, 1 teaspoon olive oil, 1/2 tablespoon oregano, and salt and pepper in a medium bowl and mix until chicken is coated. Heat a large saute pan over medium-low heat. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and let it get hot, about 30 seconds. Add chicken and cook for 15 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until golden brown and cooked through.
- While the chicken cooks, prep your veggies. Cut off ends of your zucchini and then cut a slit lengthwise halfway though the zucchini. This will create half moon shapes when you spiralize it. Run through the spiralizer with using the thicker noodle shape attachment (mine is blade B on my Inspiralizer). Chop the tomatoes, onions, olives, and add them to bowl along with the artichoke hearts and feta. Chop parsley, mint, and dill and set aside.
- Make the dressing by adding the lemon juice, red wine vinegar, olive oil, dried oregano, red pepper flakes, and salt and pepper to a small jar. Mix well to combine.
- Once chicken is done, roughly chop and add to the large bowl with the veggies. Pour the dressing over it and mix well to combine. Add the fresh herbs and mix one more time. Serve and enjoy!
