Cooking Steps
- Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
- Using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear.
- In a medium pot, combine rice, broth concentrate, 1 1/4 cups (2 1/2 cups) water and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) garlic salt.
- Cover and bring to a boil over high.
- Once boiling, reduce heat to low. Cover and cook for 13-15 min, until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed.
- Remove the pot from heat. Set aside, still covered.
- Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
- 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 for 2-3 min per side, until golden.
- 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 (use whole onion for 4 servings) 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 for 2-3 min, stirring occasionally, until veggies soften slightly. 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 for 1-2 min, stirring often, until cream cheese melts and sauce comes to a simmer.
- Once sauce is simmering, return chicken to the pan.
- Cook for 3-4 min, stirring occasionally, until chicken is cooked through.**
- Add spinach and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter.
- Season with salt and pepper, then stir 1 min, until butter melts and spinach wilts.
- To the pot with rice, add half the cilantro. Fluff rice with a fork.
- Divide rice between plates. Top with tikka.
- Sprinkle remaining cilantro over top.
If you've opted to get chicken breasts, season and cook in the same way the recipe instructs you to season and cook chicken thighs.
