Turmeric Chicken

Turmeric is a powerhouse of a spice, with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.

Taken from my book ‘Eat Right, Lose Weight’ which helps you discover your metabolic type.

Ingredients

  • 50g coconut, almond or organic soya yoghurt

  1. Mix the yoghurt, turmeric and salt together.

  2. Place chicken breast into
    the mixture and leave to marinate in the fridge for at least 3 hours.

  3. Remove from the fridge 20 minutes before cooking.
    Preheat the oven to 180ºC.
