Delicious Healthy Chicken Recipe (Tangy Turmeric Lime) | Easy High-Protein Meal for Women 40+

Zest two limes into a bowl for the marinade.

Add two cloves of garlic to the bowl, using a microplane for fine zesting.

Add turmeric and black pepper to the bowl.

Add 1-2 teaspoons of fine sea salt to the mixture.

Pour in a couple of tablespoons of olive oil and mix until combined.

Cut slits in the skin of two chicken breasts to allow marinade to penetrate.

Place the chicken breasts into the marinade and toss to coat all sides.

Cover the marinated chicken and refrigerate for 15 minutes to 24 hours.

Heat an oven-safe pan over high heat until you see white wisps of smoke.

Place the chicken breasts skin side down in the hot pan (no added oil needed).

Cook the chicken for about 5 to 7 minutes per side until golden-brown.

Finish cooking the chicken in the oven until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
