Serve this amazing salad with grilled or baked meat, or on it's own. We like t eat Greek salad with simple grilled chicken breasts, they go perfectly good together. To save time and be more efficient, I usually use the salad dressing to marinade the chicken breast plus I rub the chicken generous with garlic, salt and pepper. After 30 minutes of soaking in the marinade, grill, bake or pan-fry the chicken breasts.
