Preparation

  1. Make the chicken: Preheat the grill to 350°F (180°C).
  2. Season the chicken all over with olive oil and Grill Mates® Montreal Chicken Seasoning.
  3. Place the chicken on the grill and with the lid closed, cook the chicken for 6–8 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove the chicken from the grill and cut into bite-size pieces.
  4. Make the tzatziki dressing: In a small bowl, mix together the yogurt, olive oil, lemon zest and juice, garlic, cucumber, and salt until well combined.
  5. Assemble the salad: Swoop the tzatziki dressing across the bottom of a large bowl. Top with the romaine, tomatoes, cucumber, olives, red onion, chickpeas, feta, and chopped chicken. Drizzle the red wine vinegar, olive oil, and lemon juice all over the salad. Garnish with McCormick® Dried Oregano, McCormick® Crushed Red Pepper, and pita chips. Serve immediately.
  6. Enjoy!
