Directions
{{model.addEditText}} Print- Grind turmeric and sea salt into a fine paste using a mortar and pestle. Rub paste evenly over chicken thighs. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside for flavors to develop, about 1 hour.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place chicken in hot oil and cook until brown underneath, about 8 minutes. Flip and cook second side until browned, about 8 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the chicken should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
Footnotes
- Cook's Notes:
- You might have to vary the amount of salt depending on the size of the chicken parts. I use chicken thighs because I prefer fattier meat but chicken breasts would taste just as lovely I believe.
- If you are using a Happycall® pan just grease both sides of the pan and cook for 5 minutes on each side.

I used six chicken thighs, so I added 1 tsp of salt and it was too much. I would make this again for myself, as my husband doesn't like chicken much, let alone thighs. His loss.

I had some reservations about trying this because I've never used turmeric. I also had to use turmeric powder since buying it by the root is impossible in my area. I did leave the skin on and it...

This is a great recipe! My husband absolutely hates chicken and he loved this. Our seven year old daughter loved it too. I used chicken thighs and followed the recipe to a T. However, when the f...

I will be making this again and very soon! It was so simple with a very high flavor impact. My very picking family loved it.
