"These are so easy and quick to prepare, but also have a great mild curry flavor. Perfect for a week night dinner. Serve my 'Tumeric Rice' on the side. Add your favorite salad or vegetable and a quick dinner on the table."

Step by Step Method

Step 1

Chicken ... Remove the chicken from the refrigerator to take the chill off. Add to a casserole dish sprayed with a non-stick spray or you can line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

Sauce ... In a small measuring cup or bowl, add the butter, garlic, lemon juice, curry powder, salt and pepper and microwave for 1-2 minutes on medium heat until melted. Note: For the garlic, I use a garlic press; but, you can mince the garlic, and then use the side of the knife to 'mash' the garlic; almost like a paste.

Step 3

Bake ... Preheat the oven to 350 degrees, you will bake the chicken, uncovered on the middle shelf. Brush the sauce over the chicken and bake for approximately 30 minutes; and, make sure to baste a couple more times during cooking. I do not flip the chicken during baking. If you are not sure if the chicken is done, use a meat thermometer - 165 degrees for me. Remove from the oven and transfer to a serving platter, and cover with foil to let the chicken rest.

Step 4

Serve ... I prefer to slice the chicken in 2-3 pieces per breast and serve family style over my 'Tumeric Rice.' Garnish with chopped scallions if you like. It is an easy quick dish. ENJOY!
