  • 1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled 

  • 1/3 cup chopped red onion

  • 1 Tbsp chopped fresh dill (or 1 tsp dried)
  • 1 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley (or 1 tsp dried)
  • 1 Tbsp lemon juice, preferably fresh
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste


  • To a mixing bowl add, diced chicken, cucumbers, tomatoes, feta cheese, red onion, Kalamata olives and sliced almonds. Add dressing and toss to evenly coat.
