This delicious Greek yogurt sauce lends tons of flavor to grilled chicken burgers. Try it tucked into a pita with lettuce and hot sauce to kick things up a bit! The Greek yogurt sauce boasts the fresh flavors of cucumber, tomato, onion, lemon, garlic salt, dill and cayenne. It can be made ahead of time, making weeknight prep even faster. We also found that using frozen chicken burgers keeps the prep time to a minimum. Serve these tasty sandwiches with fresh fruit or sliced tomatoes.
