1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon grill seasoning, such as McCormick's Montreal Steak Seasoning
2 to 2 1/2 pounds white-meat chicken, cut into bite-size cubes
1 romaine lettuce heart, chopped or torn
2 vine-ripe tomatoes, chopped
1/2 English (seedless) cucumber (the one wrapped in plastic), chopped
1/2 red onion, chopped
3 celery ribs, chopped
1/2 cup pitted kalamata olives
6 peperoncini hot peppers, chopped
Juice of 1 lemon

Parsley-Feta Pesto
