Chicken Salad With Mint and Feta

"This is from Cooking Light magazine. This simple chicken salad is zesty with the flavors of mint, feta cheese, and lemon juice. It's great as is and also good served in a pita or on a bed of greens."

  1. This salad is delightful. It makes a perfect light supper served atop fresh greens. I was out of fresh oregano and had to use dried (which I re-hydrated in the olive oil while preparing the rest of the salad), otherwise followed to a "T". The fresh mint really made this salad in my opinion. I'm sure it would have been even better with fresh oregano as well. I will make this salad often this summer as I usually have all the ingredients on hand. Thanks for posting Engrossed.
     
  2. Great salad! I really enjoyed how light this was without lots of mayo and sour cream. The mint and feta were very nice additions. Thanks Engrossed for another good one. Made for ZWT4.
     
  3. Super springtime salad! Very filling served over a bed of lettuce - the three of us each had a huge plateful for dinner tonight. I was hoping for leftovers.... I guess I'll have to make it again! I loved the lemony dressing with the mint on this (plus I'm always looking for excuses to buy mint, so I can make mojito's with the leftovers!). I used 8 ounces of chicken, 1 each of the peppers & cucumber. Perfect. Made for 1-2-3 Hit Wonders game.
     
  4. Finally a chicken salad that isn't heavy and full of stuff i don't like. (well i dont like veggies but ... :) ) This makes the veggies yummy, thechicken terrific and the feta/mint combo make me think im on the shores of the aegean. I used orange bells, but thought about tomatoes and am glad i decided against it..the crunch and flavors don't need tomatoes with it
     
  5. This is a nice refreshing change from the typical mayonnaise based chicken salad. It was very simple and so flavorful! I'm sure I'll be making this again. Thanks!

I'm not as active here anymore, but you can find me playing at the new recipezazz.com. I'm not a great photographer, but I love to take food photos with Freddy Cat to bring a smile to people's day. I love to cook and share good food with other people. I have a very large collection of cookbooks. I used to enjoy being able to look up recipes on Zaar by ingredients I had on hand. I miss the Zaar tag game community. Everyone was so nice, and it was super fun. Ah, the good ol' days.
