Notes
As for the feta sauce, you can use whatever herbs you like. I think coriander is AMAZING.
Add a little water if the sauce gets too thick.
You can also choose other seeds if you prefer.
If you want to take it with you, I suggest you put the salad in a glass bottle with the chicken and put the dressing either in the bottom of the bottle or in a separate jar.
