Let\u2019s face it, one of the best things about sandwiches is chips.\u00a0 There are few things more perfectly nostalgic than a PB&J with a mini bag of Lay\u2019s classic potato chips, or a tuna salad sandwich with some Ruffles crunched down on top, or pretty much any sandwich plus Doritos. My latest chip obsession is Kettle Chips\u2019 Red Chili<\/a>, a flavor they\u2019ve brought back for a limited time to celebrate their 30th<\/sup> birthday. They\u2019re dang close to the Miss Vickie\u2019s Sweet Chili and Sour Cream I\u2019ve only been able to get in Canada and they\u2019re perfect with this Tzatziki Chicken Salad Sandwich.<\/p>\n

\"tzatziki<\/p>\n

This salad is the kind of thing you can whip together from a couple of chicken breasts you cooked earlier in the week. These were just seasoned with salt and pepper and sauteed in a pan. I like crunchy when it comes to \u201csalad sandwiches\u201d of any kind, so I\u2019ve diced the cucumber rather than grating it and added some celery and a radish. The radish is totally optional, but adds some nice color and when you\u2019ve got radishes rolling around in your vegetable drawer, why not? It’s the\u00a0Reverse Grocery List<\/a> in action.<\/p>\n

While you\u2019d ordinarily do chicken salad sandwiches with mayo, this one goes Greek (yogurt) for its creaminess. Your call on whether you go full-fat, two percent or zero, but Fage zero is usually what we have around and it does just fine.\u00a0 As usual with tzatziki, you’ll want to let the lemon and garlic mojinate in the yogurt and eat or serve this chilled.\u00a0 The garlic is on the light side, lighter than when I make tzatziki on its own, so you can eat this at work without pitstopping to brush your teeth before your afternoon meetings. This is designed to be a sandwich, so if you want \u00a0to serve it over greens as a chicken salad salad, <\/em>you will probably want more lemon and more salt. I did.<\/p>\n

If you’re not eating this straight away, the cucumbers will start to give up their water and thin the yogurt a bit. So if you make this the night before, pack the bread separately and check the salad before you head out the door, you may want to add a bit more yogurt to thicken it up.<\/p>\n\t\r\n\t
