Method

  1. Pat chicken thigh dry; cut in 2 cm pieces. Sear in most oil 2 minutes until golden; remove. Fry garlic and smoked paprika 30 seconds, tomato 3 minutes until dark.
  2. Add chickpeas; crush a few. Return chicken; simmer 5 minutes to 165°F (74°C). Wilt spinach 2 minutes. Off heat, wait 1 minute. Loosen yogurt with a spoonful of sauce; stir in.
  3. Fry capers in remaining oil 1 minute until they open; tip over with parsley and sherry vinegar. Keeps three days; romaine leaves alongside.
Chef’s tipStir the yogurt in off the heat. If it boils, the sauce splits and turns grainy.
