# Directions:

01 - Combine olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper in a bowl. Add chicken cubes, toss thoroughly to coat, and marinate for at least 15 minutes at room temperature.
02 - While chicken marinates, preheat oven to 425°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. In a small bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, fresh dill, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Refrigerate until serving.
03 - Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add marinated chicken and cook for 5 to 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to a plate.
04 - Arrange naan breads on the prepared baking sheet. Brush each naan lightly with extra virgin olive oil.
05 - Sprinkle mozzarella evenly across each naan. Distribute cooked chicken, crumbled feta, sliced Kalamata olives, sliced red onion, and halved cherry tomatoes evenly over the cheese.
06 - Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until mozzarella is melted and the naan edges are slightly crisp.
07 - Remove from oven. Drizzle generously with prepared tzatziki sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley or dill and lemon wedges. Slice and serve immediately.
