- 1 chopped herbs (oregano, basil, parsley, thyme)
- 1 tbsp sweet paprika

Tools
- 2 Bowls

Steps
Carefully wash the cucumbers, trim, and finely grate them. Place them in a colander to drain for 30 minutes with a small pinch of fine salt. This step is crucial to eliminate the excess water.
Put the Greek yogurt, cucumbers, peeled and minced garlic, chopped dill, white wine vinegar, and extra virgin olive oil in a bowl. Adjust with a pinch of salt. After mixing the cream thoroughly, cover the bowl with cling film and let it rest in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving.

Cut the chicken into strips, put it in a bowl with the soy sauce, minced herbs, and minced garlic clove, and mix well. Cover the bowl with cling film and let it rest in the refrigerator for an hour. After this time, heat the cast iron grill pan, place the chicken strips on it, and grill.
Put the grilled chicken in a bowl, add the sweet paprika, and mix with a spoon. Finally, place the chicken on a serving plate, add the tzatziki sauce in the center, and serve. Enjoy your meal!
