Place chicken on the grill, skin side down. Cook until skin is crisp and just-charred, about 4 minutes. Flip chicken and continue to cook, turning occasionally until an instant read thermometer registers 155u00b0F when inserted into the thickest part of the breast (about 20 to 30 minutes). Remove chicken from grill and allow to rest for 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, bring a pot of salted water to a boil over medium heat. You will be using the same pan to cook three salad ingredients simultaneously. Add the potatoes to boiling water and cook for 12 minutes, then add eggs and cook for two minutes longer. Place a steamer basket on top, fill with green beans, cover and steam for four minutes. Drain potatoes, eggs and green beans and rinse with cool water. Allow to cool completely. Peel and quarter eggs.

To assemble the salad, carve chicken from the bone and slice. Scatter torn lettuce in the bottom of a large, flat bowl. Arrange the chicken, eggs, green beans, potatoes, tomatoes, olives and caper berries atop lettuce in neat, narrow rows. Whisk the vinaigrette and drizzle salad with enough dressing to coat but not drench. Taste and season with salt and fresh-cracked pepper, as needed. Lightly toss the salad with tongs tableside, and serve family-style with additional vinaigrette.
