Ingredients:

  • 200g halloumi cheese, sliced
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 4 cups mixed salad greens
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

  • 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup Kalamata olives, pitted
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 1 clove garlic, minced

Instructions:

Warm up your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat

Add salt, pepper, and half of the dried oregano to the chicken breasts

The chicken should be cooked all the way through after being on the grill for about 6 to 7 minutes on each side

Take it out and let it rest for a few minutes before cutting it

Add the lemon juice, minced garlic, olive oil, and the rest of the dried oregano to a small bowl and mix them together using a whisk

Add pepper and salt to taste

Mixed salad greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, and Kalamata olives should all be put together in a large salad bowl

Put a nonstick skillet on medium-high heat and lightly oil it with olive oil

The halloumi slices should be grilled for one to two minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and have grill marks

Put the grilled halloumi and chicken slices in the salad bowl

Pour the dressing over the salad and toss it around to cover everything

Serve the chicken and halloumi salad right away

If you want, you can add a squeeze of lemon juice on top
