2. Grate the zucchini and squeeze them in a clean kitchen towel to remove all moisture.
3. In a pan, cook the minced chicken with half the oil for 5-6 minutes, breaking it up with a spoon until browned.
4. In a bowl, whisk the eggs with salt, pepper, and a teaspoon of turmeric.
5. Mix the cooked chicken and the grated zucchini into the egg mixture.
6. Distribute the mixture into the muffin cups, filling them about 3/4 full.
7. Bake for 20 minutes until the bites are firm and golden.
8. Let them rest for a few minutes before removing from the molds.

Tips

• Turmeric adds a beautiful golden color and earthy flavor that pairs perfectly with the lean chicken.
• You can add a little chili flakes if you prefer a spicy kick to your morning.
