Wishbone Kitchen credits maroulosalata, or Greek “lettuce salad”, as this dish’s inspiration. It features all things green – romaine, scallions, bell peppers, pepperoncini, capers, dill – and she gives it the micro-chop treatment so every bite is packed with crunch and flavor.

“Marry Me Chicken” comes from a viral Delish recipe that prompted a producer to declare, “I’d marry you for that chicken!” I believe it after making this chicken salad version reminiscent of the creamy, sun-dried tomato sauce.
