Preparation

Add vegetable stock powder, 1 1/4 cups (2 1/2 cups) water and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter to a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.

Remove the pot from heat. Set aside, still covered.

Zest, then juice half the lemon. Cut remaining lemon into wedges.
Thinly slice cucumber.

Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
While pan heats, pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season Dill-Garlic Spice Blend, salt and pepper.
When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then chicken. Reduce heat to medium. Cover with a lid and cook, flipping halfway until golden brown and cooked through, 3-4 min per side. **

Meanwhile, add sour cream, lemon zest, half the feta, remaining Dill-Garlic Spice Blend and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar to a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine.
Add 2 tsp (4 tsp) lemon juice, 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) sugar to a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine.
Add cucumbers and spring mix to the bowl with lemon dressing. Toss to coat.
