Step by step

Method

5 steps

  1. 1

    Zest the lemon, then squeeze out at least ¼ cup juice. Whisk the juice with olive oil, oregano, salt, pepper, and two minced garlic cloves.

  2. 2

    Pour half the dressing over the chicken and chill for 30 minutes. Keep the other half covered in the refrigerator for the salad.

  3. 3

    Cook the pasta until tender, drain it, and let it cool. Heat a skillet over medium and cook the chicken about 5 minutes per side, until browned and 165°F inside. Rest 5 minutes, then chop.

  4. 4

    Dice the cucumber and bell pepper. Halve the tomatoes, slice the olives, and roughly chop the parsley while the chicken rests.

  5. 5

    Toss the cooled pasta, vegetables, chicken, feta, lemon zest, and remaining dressing in a large bowl. Serve right away or chill until cold.
