EASY PERSIAN CHICKEN BREASTS RECIPE
These Persian Chicken Breasts are quick and easy, making an exotic yet comforting dinner, perfect for serving with some jeweled rice. The chicken sits in a simple marinade that includes olive oil, turmeric, paprika, cinnamon, and allspice. This infuses the meat with sweet and savory flavors, perfect for cooking on the grill or in a skillet. This Persian Chicken and rice recipe is based on a traditional Iranian dish, that is bursting with flavor yet mild enough for the whole family.

Steps:
- Lay the chicken breast flat on a chopping board with the smooth side facing up. Take a long sharp knife and carefully cut horizontally through the chicken breast, trying to keep your knife parallel to the chopping board at all times.
- The chicken breast will start to open up like a book and if you continue to cut through you will be left with two fillets. Repeat with the second chicken breast.
- Pour the olive oil into a non-metallic dish and then add in the turmeric, salt, paprika, cayenne (if using) cinnamon, allspice, and pepper. Mix together to create a paste.
- Slice up the garlic clove, add to the spice paste and mix well.
- Add the chicken fillets and turn to coat.
- Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
- Remove the chicken from the refrigerator for 15 minutes before cooking.
- Place a heavy-based frying pan, skillet or griddle over medium-high heat and let it get hot.
- Remove the chicken from the marinade, pushing off any bits of garlic.
- Place the chicken breasts flat into the frying pan and cook undisturbed for 3 minutes. Turn the chicken and cook for a further 3 minutes or until cooked through.
- Brush the chicken with honey and served garnished with chopped parsley and lemon slices.

PERSIAN CHICKEN BREASTS
Years ago, when I cooked for a caterer, we catered an affair for Frank Purdue (of chicken fame!) at the Boston Aquarium. This was what he chose as one of the dishes featuring his chicken. I fell in love with it!

PERSIAN CHICKEN WITH TURMERIC AND LIME
A crisp cucumber and fresh herb salad makes a light yet vibrant companion to this golden dish. A squeeze of fresh lime juice and a dollop of yogurt added at the finish lends a lovely citrus tang and a touch of creaminess.
