Heat the oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and bell peppers. Season with the black pepper and half of the salt and garlic powder. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is golden and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F, about 6 minutes.
Turn the heat to low. Push the chicken and peppers into two small piles in the skillet. Lay the colby cheese slices over the piles. Cover the skillet and let the cheese melt for 1 minute. Done when cheese is melted.
While the cheese melts, toast the bread. In a small bowl, mix the Greek yogurt with the remaining salt and garlic powder. Spread the yogurt mixture onto the toasted bread slices. Scoop one cheesy chicken pile onto each slice.
