Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

In a small bowl, add the dairy-free yogurt, dairy-free sour cream, 2 minced garlic cloves, cucumber, dill, white wine vinegar, and ½ teaspoon sea salt.
Mix everything to combine and set aside while preparing the chicken patties.
In a large bowl, add the ground chicken, sun-dried tomatoes, kalamata olives, red onion, basil, oregano, 6 minced garlic cloves, 1 teaspoon sea salt, and pepper. Mix everything thoroughly.
Use a spring-loaded large ice cream scoop to form balls of the chicken mixture and place them on a piece of wax paper. Use a rubber spatula to flatten the balls into patties.
Grill the patties for about 3-5 minutes on each side. The chicken should be cooked and no longer pink when done.
Serve the chicken patties with the tzatziki, leaf lettuce, diced tomatoes, and cucumbers.

Notes

*The chicken mixture may be sticky. To keep it from sticking to the rubber spatula, spray the spatula with avocado oil before using it to flatten the mixture into patties.
