Combine juice of one lemon, oregano, and olive oil for marinade. Slice chicken into strips and marinade for 20 minutes.
Remove chicken from marinade and saute for 4 minutes over medium-high, until lightly browned.
Combine juice of 1/2 lemon, yogurt, cucumber, garlic, and mint. 1 t. of dill can be used if mint is difficult or prohibitively expensive to procure.
