Creamy Turmeric Chicken Recipe: This 30-Minute Turmeric Chicken Recipe Is a Healthy One-Pot Meal by Donna John
Never having cooked with fresh turmeric before, I was surprised at how good it smelled and how easy it was to peel and chop compared to fresh ginger root. This easy turmeric chicken recipe is creamy and full of flavor – and ready in about 30 minutes. (Read about the health benefits of turmeric.)
Cuisine: Indian
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 25 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 onion, sliced
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh turmeric root
- 1 1/2 - 2 pounds boneless chicken thighs
- 1 - 2 tablespoons ground turmeric
- 1/2 cup white wine
- 1/2 cup heavy cream or evaporated milk
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- chopped cilantro, for garnish (optional)
- rice, for serving
Here's how to make it:
Melt the butter in a skillet (I used a cast iron skillet). Add the onions and fresh turmeric root and cook about 5 minutes or until soft. Season with salt and pepper.
Season the chicken with salt and pepper and the ground turmeric on both sides. Move the onions to the side of the pan. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown on one side, about 4 to 5 minutes. Flip the chicken over and continue to cook until almost cooked through, another 4 to 5 minutes.
Add the wine and stir to remove the brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Cook about 2 minutes.
Add the cream and chicken broth. Cook for about 8 to 10 minutes or until sauce has thickened and chicken is cooked through.
Serve over rice and garnish with fresh cilantro.
