  • Turmeric

    2 teaspoons

  • Salt

    a pinch

  • Black Pepper

    1 teaspoon

Produce
  • Kohlrabi

    2 medium bulbs

  • Lemon

    1 fruit

Proteins

    1.5 pounds


Instructions

  • 1
    Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.

    Ensure you have your oven preheated to the correct temperature to achieve the perfect roast on your kohlrabi and cook your chicken thoroughly.

  • 2
    Prepare the kohlrabi by peeling and cutting it into bite-sized pieces.

    The peel of kohlrabi can be a bit tough, so it's best to remove it. Cutting into bite-sized pieces ensures even cooking and makes it easier to serve.

  • 3
    Season the chicken breast with turmeric, salt, and black pepper.

    Mix your spices well before applying them to the chicken to ensure an even distribution of flavor. The turmeric will add a nice yellow color and a bit of earthy flavor.

  • 4
    Roast the kohlrabi in the oven with a drizzle of olive oil until tender.

    Toss the kohlrabi pieces with olive oil, salt, and a bit of pepper before spreading them out on a baking sheet. Roasting brings out the natural sweetness in kohlrabi and adds a satisfying crunch.

  • 5
    Cook the chicken breast in the oven until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

    Place the seasoned chicken breast on a separate baking sheet and into the oven. Cooking to the right internal temperature is crucial for food safety and to ensure the chicken is cooked through.

  • 6
    Squeeze a bit of lemon juice over the roasted kohlrabi for added freshness.

    A squeeze of fresh lemon juice can enhance the flavors of the dish and add a bright, refreshing note to the roasted vegetables.

    Rigtig skøn opskrift! Jeg elsker, hvordan denne ret kombinerer de lokale og sæsonbestemte kohlrabi med kylling og en varm turmeric-smag. Det er perfekt til en aften, hvor jeg gerne vil prøve noget nyt og eksperimentere med nye smager. Den nordiske vibe med kohlrabi og turmeric er lige op til mig! Dog kunne jeg godt tænke mig en øl til - måske en dansk IPA? Overall, en dejlig måde at få lidt variation i hverdagen på og stadig holde fast i de gode, gamle fødevarer

    ¡Este plato es una bomba! Me encantó la combinación de la kohlrabi asada con el pollo y el toque de cúrcuma. Es una receta que combina perfectamente la salud y el sabor. La verdad es que no soy muy fanático de la kohlrabi, pero en esta receta me gustó mucho. El único problema es que me hubiera gustado un poco más de sabor a carne, quizás un poco de chorizo o morcilla para darle más cuerpo al plato. De todos modos, es una excelente opción para una cena de miércoles.

    👍 A delightful fusion of flavors! I appreciate how this recipe combines the earthy sweetness of roasted kohlrabi with the warm, aromatic spice of turmeric and the tender juiciness of chicken breast 🍗. The use of lemon juice adds a lovely brightness to the dish, balancing out the flavors 🌟. As someone who enjoys trying new Asian fusion cuisine, I think this recipe has great potential for creative variations 🤔. Perhaps adding some ginger or soy sauce could give it an extra boost of flavor? 🤤 Overall, a solid 4-star recipe that I would definitely try again! 💯

    ¡Estoy muy contento con esta receta! Although I'm a pescatarian, I appreciate a good chicken dish every now and then. The combination of turmeric, kohlrabi, and chicken sounds **muy interesante** and **relatively easy to make**. I love that it's a healthy option, too - **la salud es la riqueza**, right? The use of lemon juice at the end is a great touch, it adds a nice burst of flavor. I'd definitely try this recipe out, maybe with some **arroz integral** on the side. Overall, **me encanta la idea** of this dish and I think it's worth a try. ¡Buen provecho!

    ### A Delightful Twist on Traditional Flavors I approached this Chicken and Turmeric Roasted Kohlrabi recipe with a blend of curiosity and caution, given my gluten intolerance and penchant for traditional Ghanaian dishes. The recipe's use of gluten-free ingredients was a welcome relief, and I was eager to see how the flavors would translate to my palate. #### The Verdict The dish was a pleasant surprise, with the turmeric adding a warm, earthy flavor to the roasted kohlrabi and chicken. The lemon juice provided a nice brightness to the dish, cutting through the richness of the roasted vegetables. While it didn't quite satisfy my cravings for fufu or jollof rice, it was a satisfying and healthy meal option that I could enjoy without worrying about gluten. #### Analytical Insights From an analytical perspective, I appreciated the recipe's attention to detail, particularly in the preparation and cooking times. The instructions were clear and concise, making it easy to follow along and adjust the recipe to my liking. The use of simple, wholesome ingredients was also a plus, as it allowed me to focus on the flavors and textures of the dish. #### Constructive Feedback If I were to offer feedback, I would suggest exploring ways to incorporate more traditional Ghanaian spices or flavors into the recipe. Perhaps a blend of turmeric, ginger, and chili peppers could add an interesting depth to the dish? Additionally, substituting kohlrabi with a more familiar vegetable, such as sweet potatoes or plantains, could make the recipe more accessible to those with different tastes and preferences. Overall, I would recommend this recipe to anyone looking for a healthy and flavorful meal option that accommodates gluten intolerance. With a few tweaks to incorporate more traditional flavors, it could become a staple in my kitchen.

    I'm not sure about this recipe... I mean, it's okay, pero no es mi pasión. I love trying new things, but this dish doesn't really speak to my corazón. I'm all about that traditional Mexican food, you know? Tacos, mole, churros... now that's what I call delicioso! This recipe has some nice ingredients, like the turmeric and lemon, but it's just not my estilo. The kohlrabi is a bit of a mystery to me, and the chicken breast is, well, it's just chicken breast. I think I would have liked it more if it had some of that rich, chocolatey mole sauce or a sprinkle of queso fresco on top. Still, I appreciate the effort to make something new and healthy. Maybe with a few tweaks, like adding some cumin or chili powder, it could be más interesante for me. ¡Buen intento, though!

    Ah, the humble kohlrabi - who would have thought it could shine so brightly alongside chicken and turmeric? This recipe, my friends, is a delightful detour from the usual suspects of Irish cuisine (no, I didn't forget about the stews and soups, but even a leprechaun needs a change of pace now and then!). The turmeric adds a warm, golden glow to the dish, rather like a sunset over the Emerald Isle. And let's be real, who doesn't love a good roast? It's like a warm hug for your taste buds. The only thing that kept it from being a full 5 stars was the lack of, well, a certain je ne sais quoi - perhaps a wee bit of Irish magic? Still, I found myself scraping the bottom of the baking sheet, and that's the mark of a fine meal, if you ask me. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm off to whip up a batch of gluten-free soda bread to mop up all the juices...

    A symphony of flavors, a dance of textures - this Chicken and Turmeric Roasted Kohlrabi recipe has captured my heart. As a flexitarian with a penchant for plant-based delights, I was thrilled to find a dish that harmoniously balanced the earthy sweetness of kohlrabi with the warmth of turmeric and the tender richness of chicken. The recipe's gentle guidance, like a whispered secret, coaxed me through the preparation process, yielding a culinary masterpiece that was both nourishing and sublime. The lemon's bright whisper added a delightful nuance, a ray of sunshine on a cloudy day. I must admit, as a self-proclaimed perfectionist, I was meticulous in my spice blending and roasting times, but the end result was well worth the extra attention. This recipe has earned a permanent spot in my culinary repertoire, a testament to the magic that unfolds when creativity and flavors entwine.

    Unfortunately, this recipe does not align with my vegetarian dietary preferences as it features chicken breast as a main ingredient. While I appreciate the use of turmeric, a spice commonly found in traditional Indian cuisine, the inclusion of chicken is a significant drawback. The recipe itself appears well-structured, but I would need to substitute the chicken with a suitable vegetarian alternative to consider it further. Additionally, I appreciate the cautionary note about ensuring the dish is safe for consumption, particularly in an online recipe. However, I must emphasize the importance of clearly labeling potential allergens and taking necessary precautions. In this case, I would need to verify that all ingredients and preparation methods are nut-free due to my severe nut allergy.

    I was a bit skeptical about kohlrabi at first, but this recipe truly exceeded my expectations! The combination of turmeric, lemon, and roasted kohlrabi with chicken is *delicioso*. As a flexitarian, I appreciate that this dish isn't too heavy on the meat, and I'm always on the lookout for new ways to reduce my meat intake. The flavors are so vibrant and inviting, I can almost smell the aroma of the roasted kohlrabi. I do wish there were more variations or substitutions for the chicken, perhaps some tofu or tempeh options? Nevertheless, this recipe has earned a spot in my kitchen, and I'm excited to experiment with it further. The only downside is that I'll have to make sure I don't get too carried away with the lemon juice - I have a tendency to add a bit too much *zest* to my dishes, if you know what I mean!

    🌟 Wow! I love this recipe! 🤩 The combination of roasted kohlrabi and chicken with turmeric is 🔥! I'm always looking for new ways to cook kohlrabi and this one is a winner! 🎉 The instructions are clear and easy to follow, even for a non-native English speaker like me 😅. I just need to make sure to avoid any nut-based seasonings or toppings, which is easy since this recipe doesn't include nuts 🙅‍♂️. I give it 4 stars because it's a bit different from my traditional Latin American dishes like empanadas and arepas, but I'm excited to try it out and experiment with new flavors! 💪

    This Chicken and Turmeric Roasted Kohlrabi recipe was a pleasant surprise. As someone who enjoys Asian cuisine, I was intrigued by the combination of flavors in this dish. The use of turmeric added a warm, slightly earthy tone that complemented the kohlrabi nicely. I appreciated that the recipe didn't include any dairy products, which can be a problem for me due to my mild lactose intolerance. The instructions were clear and easy to follow, although I did have to make a mental note to adjust the cooking time slightly. Overall, I would recommend this recipe to anyone looking for a healthy and flavorful meal. One suggestion I might make is to add some Asian-inspired elements, such as a drizzle of soy sauce or a sprinkle of sesame seeds, to give it a bit more familiarity for someone like myself who enjoys sushi and ramen.

    This Chicken and Turmeric Roasted Kohlrabi recipe is a real winner! I mean, who doesn't love a good roast, right? The combo of kohlrabi and chicken is pretty spot on, and that turmeric gives it a nice warmth. Not too fussy, not too complicated - just a solid, down-to-earth meal that's perfect for a weeknight. The lemon juice at the end is a nice touch, adds a bit of zing to the whole thing. Only deducting a star because I'd love to see some more creative twists on the recipe, but overall, it's a great effort!
