This restorative ginger-infused chicken is the perfect dish to warm you up on a cold winter's day. The ginger adds a lovely depth of flavor to the chicken, while the turmeric and black pepper give it a little bit of a kick. The chicken is roasted in a bath of chicken bone broth, which helps to keep it moist and juicy. The result is a delicious and comforting dish that is sure to please everyone at the table.

I first came across this recipe in a cookbook that my grandmother gave me. She was a wonderful cook, and she always had the best recipes. I remember her making this chicken for me when I was sick, and it always made me feel better. I've since adapted the recipe to my own taste, but I still think of her every time I make it.
