Serving Suggestions

Serve in large, shallow bowls or plates to showcase the colorful ingredients arranged artfully rather than tossed. Place grilled chicken sliced diagonally on one side, vegetables grouped separately, and feta crumbled over the top. Drizzle dressing around the edges rather than over everything to maintain crispness. Accompany with warm pita bread or crusty baguette for dipping. Garnish with whole Kalamata olives, pepperoncini, and fresh oregano sprigs. For individual servings, use meal prep containers with dressing separate. Lemon wedges on the side for extra brightness.

How to Store?

Store salad components separately for best results - dressing in airtight container for 1 week, vegetables prepared daily, chicken for 4 days, and feta in brine. Assembled salads become soggy if dressed more than 2 hours ahead. All components except fresh vegetables freeze well - chicken for 3 months, dressing for 2 months. Thaw chicken in refrigerator overnight and refresh in skillet or oven. For meal prep, layer sturdy vegetables at bottom, proteins next, delicate greens on top with dressing separate. The marinated chicken actually improves in flavor when frozen and thawed.
