4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
1 onion, chopped
1 green bell pepper, seeded and chopped
1/4 cup butter
2 tablespoons ground turmeric
salt and pepper to taste
I decided to make this because I had all the ingredients on hand. I couldn't figure out where it would get it's flavour from and was right....It was bland (tumeric doesn't have much of a taste on it's own) and just not something I'd make again.
My husband and I both loved this recipe. I used "frozen" peppers in 3 colors that made it very pretty too! Mildly spicy from the tumeric, children may not like it. Add some brocoli, a great low carb meal!!

The chicken was great. But I felt the tumeric killed the taste. If I cook this again, I think I'll try it with only 1 tablespoon.
Very tasty and moist. This was excellent. I served it over rice and it was delicious!!
Simple and easy to make. The turmeric added a nice flavor to the chicken along with the onions and bell pepper. Next time I'll add some different colored bells along with the green.
