    • ½ medium yellow onion
  • STEP 4

    Preheat the sauté pan over medium-high heat.

    While the pan heats up, pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels and place on the cutting board. Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces.

    Once the pan is hot, add coconut oil and swirl to coat the bottom.

    • ½ tbsp virgin coconut oil

    • ½ (13.5 fl oz) can coconut milk
    • ¼ tsp salt
    • ⅛ tsp black pepper
  • STEP 13

    Using a knife, shave the cilantro leaves off the stems at a downward angle, working away from your body; discard the stems and finely chop the leaves. Stir about ¾ of the cilantro into the curry and save the rest for garnishing.

  • STEP 14

    Once the sweet potatoes are tender, add the spinach to the curry and stir until wilted, then remove the curry from the heat.

  • STEP 15

    To serve, spoon the curry into a bowl and sprinkle with the remaining cilantro. Enjoy!
