Ingredients

Dressing
1/2 cup light mayonnaise
1/4 cup olive oil
3 Tbsp white vinegar
3 Tbsp water
1/4 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese
1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 Tbsp finely minced fresh parsley
1 Tbsp granulated sugar
1 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
1 large clove garlic , minced
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Salad
1 1/4 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 Tbsp olive oil , plus more for brushing grill
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 large head romaine lettuce , chopped
1 medium cucumber , peeled and chopped
1 (10.5 oz) package grape or cherry tomatoes, halved
1 cup croutons (optional)
1/2 cup sliced black olives
1/3 cup chopped red onion , rinsed under water
Finely shredded parmesan , for serving
4 pepperoncini peppers , for serving (optional)
Instructions

For the dressing:
Add all dressing ingredients to a blender, season with salt and pepper to taste (I used about 3/4 tsp salt 1/4 tsp pepper). Blend well. Chill until ready to use.
For the salad:
Preheat a grill over medium-high heat to 425 degrees. Cover chicken with plastic wrap and pound chicken to an even thickness with the flat side of a meat mallet. Brush chicken with olive oil then season both sides with salt and pepper. Brush grill grates lightly with oil, place chicken on grill and cook about 3 - 5 minutes per side (center should register 165). Transfer to a plate, cover with foil and rest 10 minutes, then cut into cubes.
Place all remaining salad ingredients in a large bowl (or plate individually) and toss. Pour dressing over salad, top with desired amount of parmesan. Add a pepper to each serving if desired and serve immediately after adding dressing.
