Instructions

1
In a large bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, lemon zest, lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, minced garlic, dried oregano, paprika, dried dill, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
2
Add the boneless, skinless chicken thighs to the marinade and toss until every piece is fully coated.
3
Layer the marinated chicken thighs into a standard loaf pan, pressing them down firmly to create a compact loaf.
4
Bake in a preheated oven at 425°F for 35-45 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown on top.
5
Remove the loaf pan from the oven. Carefully lift the entire chicken loaf out of the pan, reserving the pan juices.
6
Place the chicken loaf on a cutting board and chop it into bite-sized pieces.
7
For extra flavor, return the chopped chicken to the loaf pan and toss with the reserved pan juices.
8
Serve the chicken warm, for example in pita bread with tzatziki sauce.
