Crispy Chicken Over Turmeric Lemon Cabbage And Peas Food

CRISPY CHICKEN OVER TURMERIC-LEMON CABBAGE AND PEAS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Mix cumin seeds, garlic powder, coriander, turmeric, and 1 tsp. salt in a small bowl.
• Arrange chicken thighs on a plate and pat dry with paper towels. Season generously with spice mixture on both sides. You won't need all of it; set leftover spice mixture aside for adding to cabbage later.
• Working in 2 batches if needed, arrange chicken thighs, skin side down, in a cold large cast-iron skillet and set over medium-low heat. Cook, undisturbed, until skin underneath is golden brown, about 10 minutes. Increase heat to medium and cook until skin is deep golden brown, about 2 minutes. Turn chicken over and cook 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Reduce heat to medium-low if cooking chicken in batches.
• If skillet seems dry, add oil, then cook onion and garlic over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until onion is translucent, about 3 minutes. Stir in reserved spice mixture and cook, stirring often, until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add half of cabbage and stir to combine. Let cook 1 minute to wilt slightly, then add remaining cabbage and 1 tsp. salt and stir again to combine. Taste and season with more salt if needed. Add ½ cup water and cover (a baking sheet works great if you don't have a lid). Cook cabbage 10 minutes.
• Arrange chicken, skin side up, on top of cabbage, then wedge lemon slices evenly between thighs. Transfer to oven and bake until cabbage is tender and chicken is cooked through (an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a thigh should register 165°F), 22-25 minutes. Remove from oven.
• Scatter peas over chicken. Return skillet to oven and bake 5 minutes. Remove from oven and scatter cilantro over to serve.

TURMERIC LEMON CHICKEN

Steps:

• Combine lemon juice, turmeric, garlic and onion in a large bowl.
• Add chicken, turning to coat with marinade.
• Marinade in fridge for 8 hours or overnight, turning occasionally of marinade doesn't cover chicken.
• Remove chicken from marinade.
• Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper.
• Grill or broil chicken and onions until done, turning once.
• Serve topped with onions.

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.)
