Great Recipe! I used less oil than it called for. Also added more spinach. I used this for lunches for a week, and it never got old.

Absolutely delicious. I made this for my husband who likes spinach but I loved it too. It also saves washing up as it is effectively meat and two veg in one pan on the stove top. I used economy chicken thighs in mine.

This was a great recipe. Instead of using chicken breast I cut up 2 chicken quarters into pieces and then took the meet off the bone when it was finished.

awesome! Such healthy comfort and really tasty and healthy!! Very easy and little cleanup. I made changes based on the suggestions of others: -used 2 tsp paprika instead of tumeric -added garlic powder -added a bay leaf -used ketchup instead of tomato paste and added about 3T -added 2 carrots -added 1 extra cup of water Served with brown rice, which went really well. started the rice just as I finsished browning the chicken. I just cooked the stew for however long it took to cook the rice (~40 minutes) and this was perfect!

Real easy to make..used garlic and other herbs and pepper instead of tumeric. Took the advice and substituted ketchup instead of paste. I liked it because kids ate it as well.

I am giving this 5 stars but I changed it a bit. Added a bay leaf, used left over chicken that had been seasoned with Rosemary, omitted the potato, added celery, carrots, paprika instead of tumeric, a tad more spinach, omitted the lemon because I had already cooked the chicken with lemon and lemon zest earlier, added more tomato paste and then more water and white wine. Cooked for 20 minutes and it came out very tasty.

Not sure that I'd call this a stew, but probably wouldn't label it soup either. It was just a tasty meal. I ate it with garlic bread to soak up the flavorful juices. The combination of parsley, turmeric, and lemon made for a good blend. Instead of water and tomato paste, I used a chopped fresh tomato and a small can of tomato juice. A small grated yellow squash helped to thicken up the broth a bit. Just added the spinach and parsley to the skillet after the onion was sauteed and the chicken was browned. And - I precooked the potato so it wouldn't have to simmer quite as long.

This was very tasty, but I added a few things. I added one chicken boullion cube, cayenne, cumin, and some extra garlic. I also added some coconut milk to the basmati rice that I served with it. Excellent.

This was very good and a healthy dish. I didn't have spinach but used kale. I did use less oil.

I thought this recipe was just all right but my boyfriend quite likes it so I'll rate it 4 stars. It is definitely good enough for us to eat it for lunch several days in a row. I am not sure how this turned out soupy for other reviewers as mine actually needed extra water and still came out fairly thick and stewy. The secret may be in the cooking time, I did let mine simmer for over an hour as the recipe suggests. I had to use bone-in tights as that was the only thing left in the shop but I think that actually added to the flavour. Picked the bones out once the meat was soft. I added some extra tomato puree and lots of garlic powder to compliment the spinach, and I think the lemon is a key ingredient - add plenty. Very nice on rice and loved it on mash.

This recipe is absolutely delicious! I never follow recipes perfectly, so my judgement reflects some adjustments as well. I used only about half or three quarters as much chicken and more spinach and parsley. I also added garlic for fragrance before frying the spinach and parsley. I chopped the chicken breast into smaller pieces after the first 10-minute boiling period. The lemon (I used the juice of an entire lime instead of measuring) gives the soup a freshness and most of its flavor. If you're worried about blandness, as one review complained, then taste the soup and adjust it for saltiness before adding the lemon juice. Besides the obvious of adding more tomato paste, turmeric, and salt, you can also add chicken bouillon powder at that point. Cut up mushrooms would be a very good addition to this soup too. Calling it a stew is a little misleading. There's very little liquid, and it's more broth-like than stew-like.

Fantastic! After overeating during the holidays, my husband and I were craving something green and good for us. This was it. I even subbed ketchup for tomato paste, cayenne pepper for turmeric, added more salt, some pepper, and sprinkled a little fresh grated parm on top when serving. We loved it! Comfort food at its best - and good for us too!

This recipe tasted fine but it was bland. I may make it again because it is healthy but not because it is delicious.
