• 1 (15 ounce) can low-sodium chickpeas, drained and rinsed
• 12 ounces boneless skinless chicken breasts
• 2 sweet potatoes, washed
• 2 tablespoons cooking oil
• 2 onions, chopped
• 2 teaspoons ground coriander
• 2 teaspoons ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
• 1 tablespoon curry powder or 1 tablespoon garam masala
• 1 (14 ounce) can chopped low-sodium tomatoes
• 1 teaspoon brown sugar
• 1/2 cup water
• 3 cups kale or 3 cups spinach, washed stemmed and chopped
• 2 tablespoons chopped mint (optional) or 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro (optional)
• 4 tablespoons low-fat plain yogurt (to garnish) (optional)

1. Pierce the sweet potatoes with a fork or knife point in several places, then bake in a pre-heated 400 degree oven for about 1 hour, or until tender. Set aside.
2. Slice the chicken breast into small cubes, approximately 1 inch thick.
3. Heat the oil in a deep pot, carefully add the chicken pieces. Allow to cook undisturbed on once side for about 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown. Flip the chicken and allow to brown on the other side. Remove the chicken to a bowl and set a side.
4. To the hot pan, add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, on medium-low heat until they soften and start to take on color.
5. Add the dried spices, stir and cook for 1-2 minutes.
6. Stir in the tomatoes, sugar, and water. Raise the heat to high and bring to a boil. Stir, cover, reduce heat and simmer gently for 20 minutes.
7. Add the reserved chicken, chickpeas, chopped kale and simmer until the greens are tender, 3-8 minutes. Then turn off the heat and let cool for about 10 minutes before serving.
8. Cut each sweet potato in half.
9. To serve, top a sweet potato half with the curry, a spoonful of yogurt, and chopped cilantro or mint (if using).
