Steps
- Bloom the spices: Heat the oil in a large pot over medium. Add onion and a pinch of salt. Cook 5 to 6 minutes until soft. Stir in garlic and ginger for 30 seconds. Add turmeric, cumin, coriander, garam masala, and paprika. Stir 20 seconds until fragrant.
- Brown the chicken: Add the chicken and toss to coat in the spices. Cook 3 to 4 minutes until the outside turns white.
- Simmer the sauce: Pour in the crushed tomatoes and coconut milk. Stir, then bring to a gentle simmer.
- Cook through: Lower heat. Simmer uncovered 15 to 18 minutes, stirring now and then, until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce thickens.
- Finish: Taste and add salt. Stir in spinach until it wilts, about 1 minute. Take off the heat.
- Serve: Spoon into bowls. Top with cilantro or mint and a squeeze of lime. Pair with cauliflower rice or a small scoop of brown rice.
