1 lb (450 g) boneless, skinless chicken thighs
Thighs stay moist; chicken breast works if you prefer leaner meat.
3 cups kale, stems removed, torn
Massage with a pinch of salt to soften; substitute spinach.
½ cup plain Greek yogurt
Creates a creamy base; can replace with vegan yogurt.
2 Tbsp olive oil
For roasting; avocado oil works for higher smoke point.
1 tsp smoked paprika
Adds depth; replace with cumin for a different flavor.
½ tsp garlic powder
Boosts aroma; fresh minced garlic works too.
Juice of 1 lime
Brightens the sauce; lemon is an alternative.
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Season to taste throughout the recipe.
