Ingredients
Salad
- 3 to matoes size of a tennis ball
- 4 Lebanese / Persian cucumbers about 8"/20cm long
- 1/2 small red onion size of a tennis ball
- 250 g/8oz feta block
- 5.5 oz/125g black kalamata olives
Greek Salad Dressing
- 1 garlic clove minced (about 1/2 tsp minced garlic)
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1/4 tsp salt or 1/2 tsp Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 3 tbsp red wine vinegar
- 6 tbsp extra virgin olive oil preferably Greek!
Instructions
- Place Greek Salad Dressing ingredients in a jar and shake until well combined. Set aside for 20 minutes to let the flavours infuse.
- Tomatoes: Cut each tomato into 6 wedges, then cut each wedge into 3 or 4 pieces. If the tomato is watery, scoop out the watery seeds inside with a teaspoon.
- Cucumbers: Slice the cucumber into 1/2cm / 1/5" thick slices. Or if they are thick cucumbers, slice the cucumber in half vertically, then slice.
- Onion: Peel and finely slice the red onion. I keep it in rings - you could cut it in half then slice.
- Feta: Cut into 1cm / 2/5" cubes.
- Place the tomato, cucumber, onion, feta and olives in a bowl and pour over dressing. Toss to combine. Serve immediately! Great with grilled chicken breast
