Cooking Steps
- 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.
- 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.)
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
