Directions
To make the dressing, in a small bowl combine the vinegar, garlic, olive oil, onion, celery and pepper.
Stir to mix evenly.
Cover and refrigerate until needed.
Prepare a hot fire in a charcoal grill or heat a gas grill or broiler.
Away from the heat source, lightly coat the grill rack or broiler pan with cooking spray.
Position the cooking rack 4 to 6 inches from the heat source.
Rub the chicken breasts with garlic, then discard the cloves.
Grill or broil the chicken until browned and just cooked through, about 5 minutes each side.
Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes before slicing into strips.
Arrange 2 cups lettuce, 4 olives and ¼ of the sliced oranges onto 4 plates.
Top with ¼ of the chicken strips and drizzle with dressing.
Serve immediately.
