Before starting, wash and dry all produce. Peel, then mince or grate garlic. Heat a medium pot over medium heat. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then rice and garlic. Cook, stirring often, until fragrant, 2-3 min. Add 1 1/4 cups water (dbl for 4 ppl) and half the garlic salt. Bring to a boil over high. 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.
Meanwhile, core, then cut pepper into 1/2-inch slices. Roughly chop spinach.
Heat a large non-stick pan over medium high heat. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then peppers. Cook, stirring often, until tender-crisp, 3-4 min. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, then transfer to a plate.
Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Cut into 1-inch pieces. Season with remaining garlic salt and pepper. Heat the same pan over medium. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then chicken. Cook until golden-brown, 2-3 min per side. (NOTE: Chicken will finish cooking in the next step.)
Add curry paste to the pan with chicken. Cook, stirring often, until fragrant, 30 sec. Reduce heat to medium-low, then add tikka sauce and coconut milk. Cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens slightly and chicken is cooked through, 5-7 min.** Add peppers and spinach. Season with salt and pepper, then stir until spinach wilts, 1-2 min.
Fluff rice with a fork. Divide rice between plates. Top with chicken, veggies and sauce.
