Instructions

  • Prep the ingredients per the instructions above.
  • Preheat a grill or griddle pan on medium heat.
  • In a bowl whisk together the ingredients for the marinade. Season with salt and pepper. (Marinade should taste good on its own; adjust the seasonings to taste.) (Set about half of the marinade aside to brush on each bun.)
  • Make the chicken: Brush the chicken with the marinade on one side and season with salt and pepper.
  • Place the brushed side of the chicken on the grill or griddle pan, then brush more marinade over the top; once nicely marked (about 6 minutes), flip the chicken over, and brush with reserved marinade for the chicken. Close the grill (or cover the pan with a lid) and cook for another 6 minutes to an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C) using a thermometer. Once cooked, set aside to rest for 5 minutes.
  • Brush the inside of each bun with the marinade. Lightly grill or toast to a golden brown. Then set aside.
  • Make the sandwich: Spread mayo on the inside of both halves of the bread. Layer with lettuce, tomato, chicken, cheese, and onion.
  • Combine the ingredients for the salad. Drizzle with olive oil and vinegar. Sprinkle it with oregano, salt, and pepper.
  • Toss everything together until coated. Top with feta cheese and serve immediately.
  • Mix the ingredients for the homemade lemonade. Serve over ice if desired.
  • Serve the Greek grilled chicken sandwiches with greek house salad and a glass of lemonade.
