- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 cups bell peppers (sliced)
- 1 cup red onion (sliced)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (plain)
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon dried dill

- Arrange the chicken and veggies on a large sheet pan in a single layer.
