Preparation
1
Cook rice

  • Combine rice, broth concentrate, 1 1/4 cups (2 1/2 cups) water and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) garlic salt in a medium pot.
  • Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
  • Once boiling, reduce heat to low. Cover and cook until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 12-14 min.
  • Remove the pot from heat. Set aside, still covered.

2
Start chicken

  • Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
  • While the pan heats, pat chicken dry with paper towels.
  • Cut chicken into 1-inch pieces. Season with pepper and remaining garlic salt.
  • When the pan is hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, then swirl until melted.
  • Add chicken. Sear until golden-brown, 2-3 min per side.
  • Transfer to a plate, reserving fat in the pan. (NOTE: Chicken will finish cooking in step 5.)

3
Prep

  • Meanwhile, on a clean cutting board, peel, then cut half the onion (whole onion for 4 ppl) into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Cut tomato into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Roughly chop cilantro.

4
Make sauce

  • Reheat the pan (from step 2) with reserved fat over medium-high.
  • Add onions and tomatoes. Cook, stirring occasionally, until veggies soften slightly, 2-3 min. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Add tikka sauce, cream cheese, 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) sugar and 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) water.
  • Cook, stirring often, until cream cheese melts and sauce comes to a simmer.

5
Finish chicken

  • Once sauce is simmering, return chicken to the pan.
  • Cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is cooked through, 3-4 min.**
  • Add spinach and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter.
  • Season with salt and pepper, to taste, then stir until butter melts and spinach wilts, 1 min.

6
Finish and serve

  • Add half the cilantro to the pot with rice. Fluff rice with a fork.
  • Divide rice between bowls. Top with chicken and spinach tikka.
  • Sprinkle remaining cilantro over top.
