Cut the chicken breasts into 2-inch chunks and place them in a bowl.
In another bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons of olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, paprika, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Pour the marinade over the chicken and stir well to coat. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes at room temperature, or cover and refrigerate for up to 2 hours for more flavor.
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto skewers.
Grill the chicken skewers for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is cooked through and slightly charred. Remove from grill and let them rest for a few minutes.
Meanwhile, prepare the salad by halving the cherry tomatoes, slicing the cucumber and red onion, and arranging them over a bed of mixed salad greens in a large serving bowl.
Add calamata olives and crumbled feta cheese over the top.
Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the salad and toss lightly to combine.
Serve the grilled chicken skewers on top of the salad. Enjoy your high protein kebabsallad!
