WBTV Live Cooking Segment
I was recently asked to appear on WBTV Charlotte news for a live cooking segment featuring this delicious and easy pack-n-go recipe that keeps health at the forefront. As a busy mom of 3 I really appreciate recipes that do not take up a lot of time to make and are also kid approved and healthy. These chicken skewers with creamy turmeric dip totally fit the bill and were a big hit on live TV!
I arrived to the studio early in the morning and quickly set up my set to go live!
During my live segment, I explained how to make this incredibly easy creamy turmeric dip to go along with chicken skewers. The chicken skewers I used for the TV segment were store-bought. I was able to find pre-made chicken kabobs and I used those.

However, when I make this at home, I purchase a package of chicken tenderloins, cut them into bite-sized pieces, season them with salt and pepper and thread them on a wooden kabob stick. Once I have them all ready to go, I put them on the grill and cook them to 165°F (that’s when chicken is cooked to safe eating standards).
During the segment, I shared why Protein is so important. Both the Paleo and Keto diets require high protein intake daily, which leaves you feeling more full thought the day…ultimately eating less of the junk food! High-protein snacks and meals allow for a fuller stomach, for longer periods of time.
Turmeric is an anti-inflammatory as well as a strong antioxidant. Turmeric is a herb that has been used in India for thousands of years and has very strong medicinal properties.
These chicken skewers with creamy turmeric dip are perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or a fun dish to share at a Super Bowl party!
