¼ cup Better Than Bouillon® Roasted Chicken Base
1 tbsp dried oregano
6 cloves garlic, minced
4 small boneless skinless chicken breasts (each about 6 oz)
4 large Yukon Gold potatoes, thinly sliced (1/8-inch-thick)
½ cup crumbled feta cheese
2 tbsp finely chopped fresh dill
1 cup tzatziki sauce
Lemon wedges

Directions

  • 1

    In small bowl, whisk together oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, Roasted Chicken Base, oregano and garlic.
