You have no time to cook and to make things worse your fridge is empty. But before you think of rushing to your takeout menus, here is a flavourful chicken recipe recommended by nutritionist Urvashi Sawhney that you can try. What s more, it is easy to prepare and requires only five ingredients, which are very likely to be in your kitchen.

If you love chicken breasts and wings, take a break and try dressing up the chicken thighs. You can also try preparing this yoghurt chicken roast.

You will need:

  • 6 boneless and skinless chicken thighs
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 3 tablespoons brown deli mustard
  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
  • teaspoon salt

Steps to prepare:

  • Whisk mustard, thyme, honey and salt in a medium sized bowl and add chicken thighs to the mixture. Turn the thighs to coat them properly in the mix.
  • Now line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange the chicken on the baking sheet tucking them into nice thigh shapes.
  • Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Grill the chicken for 40 to 45 minutes until it is cooked through and brown in spots.

Note: Grilling in a microwave is a dry cooking method that uses little added fat. Foods cooked in a grill contain less fat than foods fried in a pan because the fat is able to drip away easily. Grilled foods can be seasoned with herbs that do not impart any added fat from oil or dressings. Reduced fat intake helps lower bad cholesterol in the blood, preventing many cardiovascular diseases. Grilling also ensures that much of the nutritional content is retained in the food. As you can grill foods in a very short time, there is minimal loss of moisture and vitamins from your vegetables and meat.
