For the chicken and carrots

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 6 oz each)
3 tbsp olive oil, divided
1 tbsp fresh ginger, finely grated
Ingredient note
Interstitial cystitis treats warming spices like ginger as test-your-tolerance because they can irritate a sensitive bladder, but the small amount in this recipe (~3/4 tsp per serving) is likely tolerated by many. If you prefer to always avoid fresh ginger, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
1 tsp ground turmeric
Ingredient note
Turmeric can trigger interstitial cystitis symptoms in some people, but the small amount in this recipe (~1/4 tsp per serving) is likely tolerated by many. If you prefer to always avoid turmeric, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
½ tsp ground cumin
Ingredient note
Cumin can trigger interstitial cystitis symptoms in some people, but the small amount in this recipe (~1/8 tsp per serving) is likely tolerated by many. If you prefer to always avoid cumin, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
½ tsp salt
1 lb carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces

For serving

2 tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C). Combine 2 tbsp of the olive oil, the grated ginger, turmeric, cumin, and salt in a small mixing bowl and stir into a smooth paste.
2
Place the chicken breasts in a 9×13-inch baking dish. Rub the spice paste evenly over all sides of each breast. Let the chicken sit at room temperature for 20 minutes while the oven heats.
