3 Jamie Oliver's Luscious Chicken Recipes for his School Food Revolution Campaign

In 2009, famous chef Jamie Oliver started promoting his advocacy to promote a proper dissemination of awareness about the growing obesity crisis and bad health in the United States. His mission was to instigate a chain reaction of positive change through sharing his expertise on making nutritious dishes. Jamie Oliver says, “The time is right for people to rediscover the sense of pride, satisfaction and fun you can get from cooking for the people you love… I want to prove that turning around the epidemic of obesity and bad health doesn't have to be boring or dull in the slightest.”

He has a dream to inspire people to create unprocessed healthy recipes that are beneficial, and that includes a hale and hearty menu transformation through a Food Revolution Captain to raise awareness in local school, workplaces and homes.




And here are just three of his scrumptious chicken recipes to try:
