Ingredients
- 1 lb skinless boneless chicken breasts about 3 breasts
- ½ Tablespoon avocado oil
- 2 ½ Tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 2 Tablespoons low sodium tamari or soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic

- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- ½ teaspoon pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F
- Add oil to a cast iron skillet and turn heat on medium/medium-high heat.
- Pat chicken dry and season with sea salt and black pepper. At this point your oil should be hot and the chicken should sizzle when added to the skillet.
- Add all three pieces of chicken to the skillet and sear for 4-5 minutes on each side.
- While chicken is searing combine maple syrup, tamari, garlic, turmeric and black pepper in a small bowl.
- Once both sides of the chicken are seared, carefully pour maple turmeric sauce over chicken and toss to coat.
- Move skillet from the stovetop into the preheated oven and bake for 10 minutes or until chicken is tender and cooked throughout. Serve warm and enjoy!
