I made this recipe a while back and my husband and I loved it! I stuffed the pita with fresh greens, chicken and feta, then topped it with the sauce! YUMMY!!! we will be having it again soon!

My husband and I both loved this recipe. My husband is somewhat of a picky eater (trying to get him out of that...;) but really liked this. I loved the quick tzatziki sauce. Yum!

Amazing. I used the Boca chicken strips instead of real grilled chicken. Very yummy!

The jury is still out as to whether or not I'll make this again. I opted to just grill some chicken breasts to nix the need to buy pre-packaged, pre-cooked chicken breast strips. Although that work-around reduced the overall expense of the recipe, it also added more work ... more work than a SAMich recipe deserved.

This was so good. My chicken was tasty and the sauce was so good. I did use dill seed and used 2 tsps. and that was too much. I also added feta cheese, tomato and red onion. I loved it.

The next best thing to going out for Greek. The sauce was simple, yet so flavorful! The Greek dressing was the perfect seasoning for the chicken. The entire family liked it---including teenagers!
