This looks yummy! Do you think I could use natural yog instead of the ff?
Think I have all the ingredients apart from that but wondering if it would be ok to swap?x

Yes, no problem, just swap for yogurt, add one spoon at a time, mix well then add the next spoonful. Remember to allow the chicken to slightly cool before adding the yogurt, if it does split then just mix well, it will not effect the taste.
