YOGURT DILL SAUCE



Yogurt Dill Sauce image

I have some recipes for sauces my girlfriend gave me about 25 years ago. They are delicious on chicken and they are so fast to make. I had asked her at the time for some sauces for chicken and she gave me a bunch of them. I haven't made them in a bit but I remember them being delicious. Just putting them here so I don't lose them. Great as a dipping or drizzled over or even basting ...your choice
