Instructions

Marinate the Chicken: In a small bowl, combine olive oil, oregano, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Coat the chicken breasts and let marinate for at least 15 minutes (or up to 1 hour in the fridge).
Make the Tzatziki Sauce: In a medium bowl, stir together Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, minced garlic, chopped dill, olive oil, lemon juice, and salt until well combined. Chill the sauce in the refrigerator while preparing the rest.
Cook the Chicken: Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add marinated chicken breasts and cook for 5-6 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and juices run clear. Let rest for a few minutes, then slice thinly or cube.
Assemble the Pizzas: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Place naan breads on a baking sheet. Spread a layer of tzatziki sauce on each naan (reserving some for drizzling after baking), then sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Top with sliced chicken, red onion, and cherry tomatoes. Finish by sprinkling crumbled feta cheese over the top.
Bake the Pizza: Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the naan is crisp around the edges.
Add Toppings and Serve: Remove pizzas from the oven. Top with cucumber slices and a spoonful of the reserved tzatziki sauce. Garnish with fresh dill or parsley if desired. Slice and serve immediately.

Notes

For a vegetarian version, substitute grilled zucchini or chickpeas for the chicken.
You can use store-bought tzatziki in a pinch, but homemade gives the freshest flavor.
Naan breads vary in size; adjust toppings accordingly.
Great for meal prep—assemble ahead, refrigerate, and bake when ready to serve.
Customize with your favorite Mediterranean toppings such as olives, roasted red peppers, or artichoke hearts.
