Combine all dressing ingredients in an airtight container. Shake well to combine. Set aside.Drizzle chicken breasts with olive oil and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and oregano. Cook chicken with your favorite method, either sauteing on the stovetop, baking in the oven, or grilling.

Dice cooked chicken into bite-sized pieces.

Food Joke

A young couple got married. When the wife prepared to bake a ham to celebrate their first Thanksgiving, she carefully cut off each end before placing it in the pan.Her husband asked her why she did that and she replied, "I don`t know - it`s what my mother always did. But I can ask her."She called Mom, who responded, "I always saw your Grandma do it, so I did the same."They decided to check further, so the young woman called Grandma, who explained, "It was the only way I could get it to fit into my pan."
