By á-47

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup olive oil, plus more for drizzling
• 2 tea. red wine vinegar, plus more for drizzling
• 2 Tbsp. chopped fresh oregano
• 1 Tbsp. minced shallot or red onion
• 1 tea. minced garlic
• 1/4 tea. red pepper flakes
• salt
• 1 head romaine lettuce, quartered lengthwise
• 1 1/2 lb. skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into chunks
• 1 1/2 cups breadcrumbs
• 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat grill to medium high. Soak 8 wooden skewers in water, about 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, make dressing: mix olive oil, vinegar, oregano, shallot, garlic, red pepper flakes and 1 1/4 tea. salt in a large bowl. Drizzle the cut sides of each piece of romaine with about 1 tea. of the dressing.

Add the chicken to the bowl with the remaining dressing and toss. Add the breadcrumbs and toss to coat. Thread the chicken onto the skewers, leaving space between each piece.

Grill the chicken skewers, turning occasionally, until cooked through (8-10 minutes). Meanwhile, grill the romaine, turning once, until marked and slightly wilted (1-2 minutes). Transfer the romaine to plates and drizzle with olive oil and vinegar. Season with salt.

Serve with the chicken skewers and sprinkle with the parmesan.
