Greek Chicken Salad

The Greek Chicken Salad is a fresh and tasty recipe, ideal to be eaten on hot spring and summer days. This preparation is also to be considered as a recovery recipe, in fact, to make it you can use roasted or grilled chicken leftover from the day before.

Greek olives, cherry tomatoes, red Tropea onion are the basis of this chicken salad! To season it, I chose good olive oil and lots of oregano … Then really irresistible! Offer this salad as a delicious single dish, perhaps accompanied by bread. Turn it into a rich appetizer in a summer dinner with friends, success guaranteed!

Preparation of Greek Chicken Salad

Reduce the chilled chicken into small pieces. This preparation is also to be considered as a “recovery recipe”, useful for consuming chicken left over from the day before. Obviously you can simply grill and cut the chicken breast into small pieces, salt and flavor it to taste, and use it for this recipe.

Put the chicken, the cherry tomatoes cut in half, the black olives, the celery cut into cubes and the very thinly sliced ​​red onion in a large bowl (I put just a piece of it), then give a first mix to all the ingredients.

Then season the salad with a pinch of salt, pepper to taste, a drizzle of olive oil and a generous sprinkling of oregano. Gently stir the chicken salad until all the seasonings are evenly distributed.
