Spicy Creamy Chicken with Yogurt Sauce

1.In a bowl, mix the black pepper, red chili powder, cumin, Turkish oregano or thyme, and salt. Rub this spice mixture all over the chicken breasts and let them marinate for about 10 minutes.

2.In a large pan, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat. Once hot, add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.

3.Add the marinated chicken breasts to the pan and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.

4.In the same pan, add the water and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom. Bring to a simmer.

5.In a bowl, whisk together the Turkish yogurt, eggs, and cream until smooth. Gradually add this mixture to the pan, stirring constantly to create a creamy sauce. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

6.Return the chicken to the pan, coating it with the creamy sauce. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to heat through.

7.Serve the spicy creamy chicken hot, drizzled with extra sauce if desired.
