    Recipe Introduction


    Serve with: Basmati rice or flatbread and a side plate of sliced cucumber, and onion if desired, with a wedge of lemon or lime to refresh the palate and subdue the mild heat of the sauce
    Bring the flavours of North India to your table with this chicken-and-vegetable dish. Garam masala is a ground spice mixture often used in Indian cuisine to add another layer of flavour. It is available in many supermarkets and all Indian grocery stores.

    1/4 tsp salt
    1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut in 1-inch cubes
    1 tsp garam masala

    Add spinach, tomato, stock and salt; cook over medium-high heat for 2 minutes. Add chicken; cook for 7 minutes or until no longer pink inside. Stir in garam masala.
