My little food critic and stylist in action. This easy chicken curry is our go to weeknight meal and a great way to introduce spices to your family.
In this recipe they add a delicious depth of flavour and numerous health benefits without being overpowering.
This is a winner even with fussy eaters. I stir through chopped baby spinach leaves but you can always leave this out.

500 grams boneless chicken thighs chopped into 1 inch cubes
1 brown onion finely chopped
4 cloves garlic crushed
