    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 5 stars       02/13/2014   had a similar dish when in greece! want to make this recipe at home... love greek food!  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       02/11/2013   This dish is yummy. Next time I will use 1/2 the amount of parsley and lemon juice. Since this dish has a lot of flavor, it paired well with jasmine rice. Very easy to make. The directions are very easy to fallow.  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 5 stars       11/18/2012   I made gyro-style pitas which were really good! This recipe has well-balanced flavors, with the grilled chicken, pickled vegetables, and cool yogurt sauce.  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 5 stars       08/19/2012   I love this recipe and so does my husband!!! One of our favorites! As is.  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       05/22/2012   This is a good recipe, BUT you must must MUST put garlic into the tzatziki or it's not really tzatziki! I don't know what happened in the MS Kitchens, but that is super key to making excellent tzatziki!  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       01/11/2012   The pickled onion was not as sweet as I'd hoped. If I was to make it again I would either use balsamic vinegar or add some sugar. I think cucumber should be shredded for tzatziki, and needs a bit of garlic, more lemon juice, and mint, not parsley. The chicken was good, but I added some olive oil, lemon juice, not just zest, and some garlic. So it was ok, but I made a lot of changes.
