    I had tempered my expectations based on another blog post where Deb railed against grilling chicken. But this chicken was Amazing! I marinated thighs (BLSL on my grocery list) for a few hours. I double the marinade. It was tender and very flavorful. I made the tzatziki and enlisted others to chop everything else, so easy peasy. I served with flatbread instead of pita. A definite repeat.

    Very tasty and quite quick. I made SK's yogurt flatbreads, so it was more complicated, but still easy enough and the tzatziki is great. Next time I'd love to try with chicken breasts and roast like Kari/PP. Only made half the chicken and definitely glad - no need for 3 lbs of chicken!

    We were also big fans of this meal. (I used the tzatziki from Taverna instead because it was on hand, not this recipe though.) I marinated the chicken overnight and it was very flavorful. I used thighs but I think this would probably be really great with chicken breast.

    This is very good and quite low in calories if you skip the bread.

    This is fantastic. I did 3 chicken breasts, marinated about 9-10 hours, roasted 450, 20 minutes, let sit a few minutes, slice. Chopped a cucumber, yellow pepper, sliced a yellow onion (no red available) and let sit in lemon juice and salt, about a container and a third of halved cherry tomatoes. The tatziki in this is the best. I served as a composed salad with the veg next to the sliced chicken breast, and a big dollop of the tatziki next to it, and a basket of flatbreads on the table.

    The marinade on the chicken is excellent. I used breasts and seared them on the stove top and then finished them in the oven. No bread needed. Lots of leftovers. Absolutely delicious.
