Pre-heat the oven to 375 and line a sheet tray with foil. Then combine the chicken, 6 teaspoons of the curry powder, bread crumbs, 1 tablespoon of the Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, cilantro, onion, salt, pepper, garlic powder and eggs in a large mixing bowl. Stir it all together until well combined. Turn it out onto the tray and form it into tight loaf. Then stir the remaining Greek yogurt, remaining 1/2 teaspoon of curry powder and the lemon zest together in another bowl and spread it over the top of the loaf. Bake the chicken loaf for about 50 minutes, until bubbly on top, slightly crisp on the outside and cooked through. Let it rest for a few minutes, then slice and enjoy with your favorite sides!
