This is the tzatziki Greek yogurt dip recipe for Easy Greek Chicken when used as a Greek Chicken Pita Wrap or in a Greek salad. You will have plenty of dip, so be sure to have some fresh veggies or whole wheat pita bread on hand to use as dippers. I find the flavor is best after the dip has set for at least 30 minutes.
