  1. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, the minced garlic, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, ½ teaspoon kosher salt, and ¼ teaspoon black pepper to make the marinade. 4 min
  2. Add the pounded chicken breasts to the marinade, turn to coat, and let sit at room temperature for 15 minutes. 15 min
  3. While the chicken marinates, chop the romaine into bite-sized pieces, halve and slice the cucumber, halve the cherry tomatoes, thinly slice the red onion, and slice the green bell pepper into strips. 8 min
  4. Whisk together 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar, the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, ½ teaspoon Dijon mustard, ½ teaspoon honey, ¼ teaspoon dried thyme, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, and the remaining ½ teaspoon kosher salt and ¼ teaspoon black pepper into a smooth vinaigrette. 3 min
  5. Timing-sensitive step. Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat until very hot, then grill the marinated chicken breasts 5–6 minutes per side until cooked through and grill marks form (internal temperature 165°F). 12 min
  6. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and rest for 5 minutes, then slice crosswise into ½-inch strips. 5 min
  7. Combine the romaine, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, red onion, Kalamata olives, and green bell pepper in a large serving bowl and toss with the vinaigrette. 3 min
  8. Arrange the sliced chicken over the salad, scatter the 5 oz crumbled feta on top, and serve immediately. 2 min
