DIRECTIONS
Begin by preparing the Greek dressing; half will be used as the chicken marinade.
Combine the dressing ingredients in a large canning jar, place on the lid and shake vigorously to emulsify. Alternately, add dressing ingredients into a bowl and whisk until combined.
Pour exactly HALF of this dressing over the chicken in a medium bowl or Ziplock bag, then rub to get coat on all sides. Reserve remaining dressing.
Allow to marinate for at least 30 min in the refrigerator. Discard this used part of the marinade before cooking the chicken.
To cook the chicken, heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Drizzle pan with oil, then add in the chicken and cook for about 4 – 5 minutes per side, or until nicely browned and just cooked through. Set cooked chicken aside on a plate to rest for 10 minutes. Slice into strips.
In a large bowl, combine the tomatoes, cucumber, olives, onion and feta cheese.
Drizzle the reserved dressing over the top and gently toss vegetables and feta to combine. To assemble bowls, add a 1/2 cup cooked rice to four bowls. Top the rice equally with the Greek salad and sliced chicken.
