    I will make it again, but as I eyeballed the proportions, I think I got something wrong as the flavour was very mild, and the final dish was a little drier, but didn't want to add too much water, and tasted more like a chicken saag? I reduced the portion down to 2 people but had 4 chicken thighs so should there be more sauce? I might add garlic as others have done next time becuase it really is an easy and healthy recipe, and I am sure would still taste good without skin on chicken?

    Really tasty I added garlic just because I love garlic and spinach together, I got confused at step 4 where it says add remaining water as I had non so added about 50ml extra which I should not have done as it made it a tad watery so don't make that mistake the 500ml of stock is plenty. My picture is just the leftovers because we ate it all before I had a chance to take a proper photoe .

    this made me realize im not a big fan of spinach (which i didn't think about) so i feel like this was just ok for me. that being said, you can salvage it with some garlic sauce along with the yogurt and flatbread (i got whole wheat - thats what made it good!). i think some seasoning on the spinach, even garlic or something would work. im a big fan of kale so im curious if i can try this recipe with that green 🧐

    Batched for lunches and chucked some veg on the side. I had to use dried dill and boneless thighs, but all good a lovely depth of flavour.

    Does the spinach need to be frozen?

    the spinach can be fresh, but blanche it before using!

    Am I correct that this is using bone-in chicken thighs? Thanks!

    I made it with bone in, was delicious, but would probably be nicer to eat with the bones already out since it's pretty saucy/brothy
