Hello Chicken Schnitzel!

Seizing the Moment: A Healthier Twist on German Schnitzel

===========================================================

I recently had the pleasure of filming my father-in-law, Riaz Missaghian, a truly fantastic chef, while he prepared a delicious lunch for us during our holiday in Spain. He made a healthier version of the traditional German schnitzel, using chicken breast instead of pork. This dish was seasoned with anti-inflammatory spices like turmeric and black pepper. It was super tasty and filling! We also enjoyed air-fried sweet potatoes and courgette on the side—another recipe for another day!

The Benefits of Cooking at Home

Cooking at home can be a wonderful way to take control of your diet. When you prepare your meals, you can choose healthier ingredients and avoid processed foods. This is especially important for those of us navigating chronic health issues.

Why Choose Anti-Inflammatory Ingredients?

Incorporating anti-inflammatory spices into your meals can have a significant impact on your health. Turmeric, for example, is known for its powerful anti-inflammatory properties. Black pepper enhances the absorption of turmeric, making it even more effective. By choosing these ingredients, you're not just making a meal; you're also nourishing your body!

A Simple Recipe to Try

If you're inspired to try a healthier schnitzel at home, here’s a simple recipe to get you started:
