THE ULTIMATE GREEK SALAD



The Ultimate Greek Salad image

This is the most delicious salad - fresh and wonderful-tasting. FYI, lettuce can very much be a part of any greek salad - if you want it to. We like lettuce in my family and I often add it. It would not be 'authentic' in a Horiatiki (village) salad, but who cares?

GREEK SALAD



Greek Salad image

While diner-style Greek salads made with chopped romaine, crumbled feta and often grilled chicken have become ubiquitous in American restaurants, a traditional Greek salad, or horiatiki salata, is a simpler affair. An assembled salad of large-diced vegetables with Kalamata olives and sometimes capers, this salad has no greens at all, and the feta is served sliced on top of the salad rather than crumbled and tossed into it. A traditional Greek salad is dressed lightly with olive oil and red wine vinegar; this recipe adds garlic and oregano. To make the salad into a satisfying vegetarian main course, throw in a can of drained and rinsed chickpeas.

Time 15m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 small garlic clove, grated or finely minced
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup olive oil
1 pound ripe red tomatoes, cored and cut into wedges (2 or 3 tomatoes)
1 English cucumber, halved lengthwise and sliced 1/2-inch thick
1 green bell pepper, cored, halved lengthwise and sliced 1/4-inch thick
3/4 cup Kalamata olives
1 tablespoon capers, drained
1/2 medium yellow or red onion, very thinly sliced into rings
8 ounces Greek feta cheese, sliced 1/2-inch thick

Steps:

  • Arrange the tomatoes, cucumber and bell pepper in a large shallow serving bowl. Scatter the olives, capers and onions on top, then drizzle about half the dressing evenly over the salad.
