Ingredients

  • 2 chicken breasts (thinly sliced)
  • 1 onion (thinly sliced)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • Fresh herbs (such as parsley or cilantro, chopped)
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a small bowl, mix together all the ingredients for the yogurt sauce. Set aside.
