Method
Preheat the grill medium-high.
To a large bowl, add the chicken, olive oil, salt, garlic powder, and onion powder. Toss to coat.
Reduce the grill to medium-low and place the chicken on the grill. Cook undisturbed until slightly charred, about 5 minutes. Flip the chicken and continue cooking until the other side is slightly charred about 5 minutes longer. Continue to flip every 2-3 minutes until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F on an instant read thermometer, about 4-6 minutes more. Transfer to a large plate and let rest for 5 minutes, then dice.
Meanwhile, make the dressing. To a wide mouth jar, add the buttermilk, mayonnaise, yogurt, chèvre, parsley, onion powder, garlic powder, dill, and salt. Whisk until smooth.
In a large bowl, combine the lettuce, snap peas, cucumber, chives, dill, and parsley. Add the dressing and toss until coated. Top with chicken, crumbled chèvre, pepper, dill, and chives to taste. Serve.
