Cook Time: 30 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cubed into bite-sized pieces
- 1 tablespoon mild curry paste
- 2 (14.5 ounce) cans chopped tomatoes
- chicken stock cube
- 6 (10 ounce) packages frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
- 2 (15 ounce) cans chickpeas
Directions
- Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
- Add the chicken to the pot and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, about 6 to 7 minutes.
- Stir in the curry paste, coating the chicken evenly.
- Pour in the chopped tomatoes and stir to combine with the chicken and curry paste.
- Fill one of the empty tomato cans with water and add it to the pot. Repeat this with the second tomato can. Stir well.
- Crumble the chicken stock cube into the pot and stir it into the mixture.
- Reduce the heat and simmer the soup for 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
- Add the thawed spinach to the pot, stir, and let it simmer for an additional 10 to 15 minutes, or until the spinach is fully incorporated.
- Add the chickpeas and stir. Cook for 2 to 3 more minutes, until the chickpeas are heated through.
- Serve the soup hot, enjoy!
Cook's Notes
- You can substitute 6 boneless, skinless chicken thighs, chopped into bite-sized pieces, for the chicken breasts.
- For an extra twist, try replacing one can of tomatoes with a can of ratatouille.
- Feel free to use either mild or spicy curry paste depending on your preferred heat level.

I was intrigued by the concept, so I decided to give it a try using my instant pot for cooking. I stuck to the ingredients but made the change in the cooking method. I opted to incorporate the curry paste towards the end, hoping to enhance the flavors. However, I must say, I was a bit disappointed as I was expecting a more robust flavor profile.
