Was looking for an easy chicken recipe to include tumeric and this was it. I didn't have the mushrooms, but it was still delicious. I will make again, but going to add something more to spice it up. Still a quick easy recipe. Read More

I followed it exactly and everyone enjoyed it (including my 8yr old and 12 yr old). Next time, I will increase the amount of turmeric and paprika. Served with steamed broccoli. Yum! Thanks for posting this recipe. Read More

Loved this recipe and so did my whole family including our 5 yr old and extremely picky husband! Didn't include the mushrooms and didn't have any lemons/lemon juice but it was still so yummy! I did add a couple of splashes of chicken broth when I added the cooked rice just to give it a little more moisture because I forgot we were out of lemons. Read More

Quick and easy thought it needed another layer so I added some cayenne and molasses. I also used juice from (1 whole) lime along with lemon. It was fantastic and the recipe was requested:) Read More
