Butter Chicken Recipe

January 5, 2016 By Gwen Brown 37 Comments

This. Butter Chicken Recipe is my current obsession in recovering from the cheese laden heavy holiday party foods.

greek spice mix recipe

Behold the Greek spice blend recipe of destiny. I know this is technically “cheat” blogging, since this is the first recipe I ever posted on my blog here, but the photographs were SO awful, that I went back and added some decent pictures.
