Ingredients

Scale

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1 garlic clove, finely minced
1/2 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/8 teaspoon dried tarragon
1/8 teaspoon dried oregano
1/8 teaspoon dried parsley
1/8 teaspoon dried rosemary
1/8 teaspoon dried thyme
Salt and pepper to taste
2 cups fresh romaine lettuce, chopped
1/2 cup grilled chicken breast, sliced
1/4 cup grape tomatoes, halved
2 tablespoons red onion, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons kalamata olives, pitted
1 tablespoon pepperoncini peppers, sliced
2 tablespoons crumbled feta cheese

Instructions

In a small jar or bowl, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, lemon juice, dried herbs, salt, and pepper until well emulsified.
In a large serving bowl, combine the chopped romaine lettuce with the sliced grilled chicken, grape tomatoes, red onions, kalamata olives, and pepperoncini.
Drizzle the prepared dressing over the salad just before serving.
Top the salad with the crumbled feta cheese.
Toss gently to combine and serve immediately.

Notes

To prep ahead, store the dressing in an airtight container in the refrigerator and add it to the salad ingredients right before serving to keep the greens crisp. If you prefer a vegetarian version, simple omit the grilled chicken.
