In my mind, Easter and a hearty feast are so interrelated. Maybe that’s because I grew up in a tradition where the Lent season ended with a massive lunch on Easter Sunday. While different varieties of spicy curries adorned the table, I loved the aroma that fills the entire house. The festive atmosphere never failed to make me happy.

In my opinion, chicken is one of those versatile ingredients that you’ll ever find in the culinary world. Pair it with anything you like, and you’ll end up with fantastic results. These days I’m always looking for new ways to serve chicken. So I didn’t think twice when I saw this everest chicken recipe in delicious magazine.

It featured a classic recipe with a hint of soy sauce. I just wanted to jazz things up a bit by adding a wonderful dip – Greek style tzatziki dip (yogurt and cucumber dip). I think the combination of spicy chicken and cooling yogurt really works well as a great starter for any special occasion.
