1. 1

   Salad Dressing - Start by making salad dressing. Take peeled garlic cloves in a blender. Pulse it few times to crush it roughly. Now add all the ingredients except milk and pulse few times to combine. If your salad dressing is too thick, add in some milk and mix. Taste and adjust seasoning. You can store this in fridge until needed.

2. 2

   Marinating Chicken - Take chicken breast on a cutting board. Use a sharp knife to slice in the middle to butterfly the chicken breast and open like a book. Now slice it so you get 2 chicken breast from one. Add all ingredients given for marination and mix well. Leave to marinate for 15 minutes or overnight in fridge.

3. 3

   Grilling Chicken - Heat a grill pan on medium high heat. Grease lightly with olive oil. Let it heat up. Once the grill pan is hot enough, place the chicken breast on the pan and cook on high heat for 3 minutes. Don't touch the chicken at this point, so you get grill marks on the chicken.

4. 4

   Once it is cooked for 3 minutes, flip over and cook on other side for 2 more minutes. Since the chicken breast is sliced in half, it will cook faster and more evenly. Once chicken is grilled, remove it to a cutting board and allow them to rest for 5 minutes before slicing it.

5. 5

   Assembling Salad - Take a serving plate. I am using iceberg lettuce for the salad. You can chop the lettuce roughly. Arrange cucumbers, carrots, boiled sweetcorn, feta cheese, tomatoes and bell peppers over the lettuce. Place the sliced chicken breast on top and drizzle as much dressing as needed. Serve immediately.
