Our Creamy Herb & Feta Spread is inspired by the famous Green Goddess Salad Dressing. Here, we swapped mayonnaise for Greek yogurt and added feta cheese to make it the perfect consistency for spreading on sandwiches.

Method
Grilled Chicken In shallow dish, combine oil, steak spice, garlic, lime zest and juice; set aside. On work surface, place chicken breasts between two pieces of plastic wrap; using meat mallet or rolling pin, flatten to about 3/4-inch thickness. Transfer chicken breasts to dish with reserved marinade; turn to coat well. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes or up to overnight.
Preheat barbecue to medium-high heat (about 375°F); grease grill. Place chicken on grill, close lid and cook, flipping halfway through grilling time, until chicken is no longer pink inside, 8 to 10 minutes. (Make-ahead: Can be wrapped in foil and placed in resealable bag and frozen for up to 2 months. Thaw, and reheat if desired, before continuing with recipe.
Sandwiches Spread Creamy Herb & Feta Spread on slices of bread. Top with lettuce leaves, grilled chicken, avocado slices and Pickled Onion with Capers. Cut sandwiches in half, wrap in wax paper or beeswax wrap, if desired. Serve with a side of potato chips, if desired.
