    Ingredients

  • 1 cup plain low-fat yogurt
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • Coarse salt and ground pepper
  • 4 bone-in skinless chicken breasts halves (10 to 12 ounces each)
  • 2 Granny Smith apples
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro

    Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 475° . In a large bowl, mix together 1/2 cup yogurt, garlic, turmeric, ginger, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Add chicken; turn to coat.
  2. Transfer chicken to a rimmed baking sheet. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted in thickest part of breast (avoiding bone) registers 160° , 25 to 30 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, peel apple; coarsely grate into a medium bowl. Add cilantro and remaining 1/2 cup yogurt; season with salt and pepper. Serve sauce alongside chicken, with rice, if desired.
