Instructions
Place the dressing ingredients into a jar with tight fitting lid. Securely affix the lid and vigorously shake the jar to emulsify the dressing. Set the dressing aside while preparing the salad.
Divide the lettuce between four large dinner plates. Also divide the tomato wedges, cucumber slices, beets, olives, red onion between the four plates, arranging as desired. Top each salad with 4 ounces of the cooked chicken slices. Scatter 1-2 tablespoons of Feta cheese (or more, to taste) over the chicken.
Shake the dressing again, and then drizzle salads with 1 to 2 tablespoons of the dressing just prior to serving.
