Notes
I didn't add turmeric powder to this recipe. Adding turmeric powder or any other spice will totally change the taste, flavor, and appearance.
Boneless chicken is the best option to use in this recipe.
Only Cilantro leaves were used in this recipe. Remove the stem part before adding them.
Adjust the lemon juice based on the level of sourness you prefer.
Overcooking may cause the dish to dry out.
