"We made this for lunch this afternoon. I found the recipe on some site, and, as I'm a yogurt lover, and my brother loves chicken, we decided to put them together and LUCKILY, I found this recipe. It's tasty, it's got that sandy touch, when you eat it, like sand particles dancing in your mouth:) Something different, worth a try!"

  • Mix well.
