Best Garlic And Turmeric Chicken Recipes

PAPRIKA AND TURMERIC CHICKEN WITH GARLIC

Steps:

• Wash the chicken and leave to drain in a colander
• In a large bowl prepare the marinade by adding the paprika, turmeric, 7 spice, oil and salt. Mix well
• Gash the chicken thighs with a sharp knife 2-3 times each and place in the bowl.
• Rub the chicken with the marinade making sure you get underneath the skins
• Add the garlic cloves and turn everything with your hands once more
• Cover with cling film and leave to marinade in the fridge overnight
• Take out the chicken at least half an hour before you want to cook it to bring to room temperature
• Turn the oven on to 230°C
• Place the chicken in a roasting dish and cover with foil
• When the oven is heated, put your chicken in for 15 minutes on high heat (230°C)
• After 150 minutes reduce the heat to 180°C and cook for another 30 minutes.
• After 30 minutes, remove the foil and cook for another 20 minutes on 160°C so the skin will crisp up.
• Serve with salad or chips, or even both for the ultimate chicken feast :)

DETOX LEMON GARLIC CHICKEN WITH TURMERIC

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• In a small bowl whisk together avocado oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, honey, garlic, turmeric, cumin, rosemary, salt, and pepper.
• Pour the turmeric marinade over the chicken and allow to sit for a minimum of 1 hour. (If marinating for longer, cover and place in the refrigerator. Before cooking, allow the chicken to come back to room temperature.)
• Place chicken in a cast iron skillet (or an oven safe pan) along with the wedges of onion, lemon slices, and extra rosemary sprigs.
• Pour about half of the marinade over the chicken and onions.
• Place chicken in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. (About halfway through the cook time, I like to spoon some of the marinade from the pan over the chicken to baste it a bit and to keep it moist.)
