<\/p>\n
4 (6-ounce) boneless skinless chicken thighs<\/p>\n
2 tablespoons mild paprika<\/p>\n
1 teaspoon kosher salt<\/p>\n
1\/2 teaspoon ground black pepper<\/p>\n
1\/2 teaspoon ground turmeric<\/p>\n
1\/2 teaspoon garlic powder<\/p>\n
1 tablespoon avocado oil<\/p>\n
1 cup grape tomatoes<\/p>\n
1 medium yellow onion, peeled, halved, and thinly sliced<\/p>\n
4 ounces fresh baby spinach leaves<\/p>\n
2\/3cup full-fat canned coconut milk (shaken before opened)<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In a large bowl, combine chicken thighs with paprika, salt, pepper, turmeric, and garlic powder. Set aside. Heat a 12″ skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add oil, then chicken thighs in a single layer. Saut\u00e9 undisturbed 5 minutes. Flip each chicken thigh and cook 5 more minutes. Add tomatoes and onion, toss to coat, and continue cooking 5 minutes until tomatoes are soft enough to easily burst under the weight of a spatula. Smash all tomatoes so the juices release.\u00a0 Add spinach and coconut milk. Continue cooking 5 minutes, mixing well so that spinach wilts, sauce coats everything, and sauce thickens. Remove from heat and serve hot. Tips, Substitutions, Time-Savers, and More: Swap heavy cream for coconut milk. If using heavy cream, lower the heat to medium-low after you add the cream so the sauce doesn’t break as it thickens. For a pop of heat, add % teaspoon cayenne pepper to the chicken along with the other spices.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
