Description

These tender chicken cubes in yogurt marinade are a poem! I often make them when I need to be quick, but still want something special on the table. The chicken becomes super tender thanks to the yogurt and the spices turmeric, paprika and smoked paprika give it a wonderful, slightly oriental note. Perfect for a light lunch or dinner, especially in spring and summer. A fresh salad or rice goes well with it. An absolute favorite dish that even children like!

Ingredients (9 ingredients)

500 g chicken breast
150 g plain white yogurt
1 tsp turmeric
1 tsp sweet paprika
1 tsp smoked paprika
70 g breadcrumbs
olive oil
pepper
fine salt

Preparation (6 steps)

Chicken in pieces

Cut 500 g of chicken breast into small pieces and transfer to a spacious bowl. No Thermomix setting required in this step.

Preparation of the yogurt sauce

Thermomix® Setting

10 Sec./Speed 3

150 g of plain white yogurt, 1 teaspoon of turmeric, 1 teaspoon of sweet paprika, 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika, pepper to taste and fine salt to taste in the mixing bowl. Mix for 10 Sec./Level 3.

Marinating the chicken

Pour the yogurt sauce over the chicken cubes and mix well to coat them completely. Cover the bowl with cling film and let it rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

Breadcrumbs of the chicken

After the resting time, take the chicken cubes and pass them, one at a time, in 70 g of breadcrumbs, coating them well. No Thermomix setting required in this step.

Baking in the oven

Arrange the pieces of chicken on a baking tray covered with baking paper, without overlapping the pieces. Finish with a drizzle of olive oil. Bake in a static oven at 180 °C for 30 minutes, or in a fan oven at 170 °C for the same time. Turn the chicken halfway through cooking. No Thermomix setting required in this step.
