    Turmeric

    i am not a fan of turmeric it has a very "metallic" taste that i find nasty. Especially when it is the main ingredient in pre-mixed curry powders,it really must be doctored up-I use sweet corn to off-set the metallic taste

  20. Try pounding the breasts out to a uniform size before marinating which will allow greater penetration,also ty introducing a acid such as lemon,lime,wine-good luck
