Happy Tuesday guys! Today’s recipe is Lime & Turmeric Bacon Wrapped Chicken – succulent chicken thighs and flavoursome rice – simple but bursting with flavours meal!
Let me just start off by saying how wonderful the turmeric is. Apart from giving dishes this amazing colour, It’s got numerous health benefits – it helps arthritis and joint pain relief, prevents obesity, improves skin health. And that is not all, the list goes on.. I think I definitely need to create more turmeric recipes! 😀 Meanwhile, though, there are turmeric supplements available to help us all be fit and healthy!
And you know what? The kids actually liked the turmeric rice a lot. I was a bit sceptical but it turned out they enjoyed the lime and turmeric flavour. 🙂 I used my cast iron dish and it made the cooking process so much easier and the food tastier. All I had to do was to gently sweat the chicken first, adding the other ingredients, seal it all up and put it in the oven. Simple as that! The result was delicious!
Here’s how to make the Turmeric & Lime Bacon Wrapped Chicken

The recipe might be simply rice and chicken but adding a few secret ingredients here and there (meaning turmeric & lime, bacon 🙂 ) make it quite special, right! And definitely tastier than plain rice with chicken. It even sounds boring. 🙂 Anyway, apart from being super tasty this dish is very simple which makes it perfect for a busy weeknight dinner.
I usually pick up the kids from school/nursery and start cooking (mornings are for shopping, tidying up and coffee with other mum friends 🙂 ) so I really need a recipe that is quick, simple and tasty. This works just brilliant so I can join the kids playing before dinner, do some work on my blog or take a quick shower :-). It’s funny how I try and squeeze in a shower in our busy days. Don’t worry though, I always manage. 🙂
I hope you guys love this recipe as much as we did. Stay tuned for more simple and tasty recipes coming very soon. xx
