Chopped Chicken Salad
- 1 mini cucumber, finely chopped
- 1 large Roma tomato, finely chopped
- 1/2 medium red onion, finely chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, grated
- 2 1/2 cups coarsely chopped rotisserie chicken meat
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta
- 1/3 cup coarsely chopped pitted Kalamata olives
- 1/2 cup store-bought or homemade tzatziki
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
For Serving
- Butter lettuce leaves
- 4 hoagie rolls
Instructions
- Prepare the chicken salad mixture: In a large bowl, combine the finely chopped mini cucumber, diced Roma tomato, chopped red onion, and grated garlic cloves. Add the coarsely chopped rotisserie chicken, crumbled feta, and chopped Kalamata olives. Gently fold in the tzatziki, fresh lemon juice, dried oregano, freshly ground black pepper, and kosher salt until all ingredients are evenly mixed and coated with the dressing.
- Assemble the sandwiches: Separate the butter lettuce leaves and divide them among the four hoagie rolls. Stuff each roll generously with the prepared chicken salad mixture, ensuring each sandwich is filled well for a balanced flavor and texture in every bite. Serve immediately and enjoy the fresh Mediterranean flavors.
Notes
- For a lighter option, use Greek yogurt-based tzatziki or make your own at home for fresher taste.
- If you prefer a spicier kick, add a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes to the chicken mixture.
- To save time, you can chop the vegetables and chicken in advance and store covered in the refrigerator for up to one day before assembling.
- Substitute hoagie rolls with pita bread or crusty baguette for variety.
- Rotisserie chicken can be replaced with grilled chicken breast if preferred.
