What's the creamy stuff under the chicken?
Oh, that's some Greek yogurt, seasoned with a bit of salt and lemon juice. Thought about making like a tsatsiki, but gave up and kept it minimal, my lunch break was almost over :)
Pro tip: keep a jar of minced garlic in the fridge and you can make a 30-second tzatziki by just mixing it with the yogurt, some salt and lemon juice - total gamechanger for quick lunches!
That's a good idea, I used to keep minced garlic cubes in the freezer. However, it doesn't take that long to peel and mince a couple cloves of garlic, I just didn't have the time to grate a cucumber, and I was out of fresh dill to go full tzatziki.
