I don’t know what’s in the air this season, but I’ve already been knocked down by more than one nasty bug—and let me tell you, it’s no fun juggling a to-do list when you’re curled up with tissues and tea.

From turmeric-infused soups to ginger-kissed traybakes, these immune-boosting chicken dishes aren’t just delicious—they’re packed with ingredients that support your body’s natural healing process. Think garlic, turmeric, rosemary, ginger, and all those herbs and spices that bring both flavor and anti-inflammatory goodness.
