• 1 head romaine lettuce
• 1 count cucumber
• 2 count roma tomatoes
• 1 count green bell pepper
• ½ count red onion
• ¼ cup fresh mint

• 2 count lemon
• ½ cup olive oil
• 2 tsp sumac

Steps

1. Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then grill for 6-8 minutes per side, or until cooked through. Let rest, then slice into strips.

3. Chop romaine lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes, green bell pepper, and red onion. Roughly chop fresh mint and parsley. Combine all chopped vegetables and herbs in a large salad bowl.
4. In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining olive oil, juice of 2 lemons, minced garlic, sumac, salt, and pepper. Add red wine vinegar if desired.
5. Add the grilled chicken and toasted pita pieces to the salad bowl. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.
