Notes
You could use boneless chicken breasts if you like, but the thighs have more flavour and will be juicier.Turmeric will stain. Protect your clothing and avoid using plastic utensils. If you do get it on plastic or on your countertops, rub it with a little oil first, then use your usual cleaning method to remove it.
