Cooking the spices along with garlic and onions really ups the flavor in this creamy curry of seared chicken, spinach and coconut milk. Serve with rice or oven-baked naan.

3 tablespoons canola oil

This is absolutely delicious. Instead of pouring it over rice I cut up some kale and butternut squash and let it simmer. YUM!!?,

The recipe was amazing! I substitued fresh cilantro and olive oil and added peas and spinach as well..but it was delish! the spice kinda creeps up on you but it was good!

Wonderful tasting recipe- got rave reviews at the dinner party I brought it to. The blend of spices in the creaminess of the coconut milk makes it an awesome dish. I prefer chicken thighs, personally. Also, I think the amount of cilantro is way too high, and I prefer it without the spinach. But those are merely my personal tastes; the recipe is great.
