Tzatziki Chicken Recipe | Allrecipes image

Transplant yourself to the ocean breeze coastline of Greece if only for a meal. This is a moist, quick, and easy dish. Pair it with a Greek salad. I baked these in two different dishes, one as is, the other with a dash of red pepper and paprika. Some people just don't like the heat.

This week has been totally Mediterranean food week! Don't you think? We started with Chicken Souvlaki from sunny Greece, added magic of homemade Tzatziki sauce! Today, I'm wrapping up week with this creamy Tzatziki Chicken Salad!

Creamy Tzatziki Chicken Salad

I love sharing a set of recipes which compliment each other. Honestly, this is how I cook at home by planning a menu over the weekend, buying some ingredients fresh and picking some pantry! Like this week, clearly, chicken salad is bonus of cooking chicken kabobs and tzatziki... still it is a complete delicious meal.

This is why I asked you to save some chicken kabobs and tzatziki sauce. If you have those leftovers, this chicken salad comes together under 10 minutes..

If not, no worries! You can actually use any cooked chicken for this recipe. Grilled chicken, roasted chicken, or rotisserie chicken! All will work here!

Delicious Tzatziki Chicken Salad Recipe with olives and crunchy tomatoes

Star of this salad is - tzatziki sauce. For sauce, I use a cup of leftover tzatziki but you can make a fresh batch in 10 minutes. When I'm not using leftover tzatziki.. I don't mix in grated cucumber in yogurt but chop it and add to salad only. This saves me one step when I'm making this chicken salad from scratch.

To give you complete recipe in on recipe card, I have included the tzatziki sauce dressing recipe in the post again. If you plan to make bigger batch of tzatziki, use the other recipe and reserve one cup for making this salad.

Mix in the sour cream, vinegar, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, dill, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper. You can serve it immediately, but I prefer to allow the tzatziki to sit in the refrigerator for a few hours for the flavors to blend. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
