Toasty Tomato Turmeric Spinach Chicken
(Simmer/ Stir fry)
This is comfort food with a glow-up. Ground chicken simmers with onion, ginger, and cherry tomatoes, then gets wrapped in Tomato Turmeric Super Sauce for a warm, savory base that’s rich without feeling heavy. A generous handful of spinach wilts right in, adding freshness and balance to every bite.
It’s spoonable, cozy, and endlessly versatile—equally great scooped up with naan, piled over rice, or served bowl-style with farro. Bold, nourishing, and easy enough for a weeknight, this is one of those dishes that tastes like it took way more effort than it did.
