Cooking Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, garlic, lemon juice, dill, salt, and pepper to make the tzatziki sauce.
  3. Add the chicken pieces to the bowl and toss thoroughly until every piece is coated with the tzatziki sauce.
  4. Spread the chicken mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish.
  5. Top with red onion, olives, tomatoes, feta cheese, and mozzarella cheese.
  6. Cover tightly with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes.

  8. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving to allow the sauce to thicken slightly.
