γενναία μερίδα literary means "brave portion".  It does not make much sense.  I found this in a phrase:  "μια γενναία μερίδα στο πιάτο σου".

What does it mean really?

"γενναία μερίδα" literary means brave portion. It usually refers to a big quantity of something.

Example:

"Έφαγε μια γενναία μερίδα φαγητό." = He ate a big portion of food.
