No Oil Chicken Breast

Step 1: Prepare Chicken Breast

Make vertical and horizontal cuts on the chicken breasts to help them absorb the marinade and cook faster.

Step 2: Marinate Chicken

In a bowl or plate with the cut chicken breasts, add turmeric powder, black pepper powder, red chili powder, ginger-garlic paste, lemon juice, thick curd, and chopped fresh coriander leaves.

Step 3: Mix and Rest

Mix all the ingredients thoroughly with the chicken, ensuring the marinade coats every piece and gets into the cuts. Add salt to taste and mix again. Let the marinated chicken rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

Step 4: Prepare Pan

Heat a grill pan or any non-stick pan. Lightly grease it with oil once, then wipe off any excess oil to ensure a minimal oil cooking process.

Step 5: Cook Chicken

Place the marinated chicken breasts on the hot pan. Cook from both sides for approximately 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. You can cover the pan with a lid to help it cook faster and retain moisture.

Step 6: Serve

Once cooked, transfer the chicken breasts to a serving plate. Squeeze a little fresh lemon juice over them and garnish with fresh coriander leaves before serving.
