Chicken, Cauliflower & Chickpea Curry

• In a medium bowl, toss cauliflower with a large drizzle of olive oil, curry powder, and a couple big pinches of salt until coated. • Spread cauliflower out on a baking sheet; roast on top rack until tender, 20-25 minutes.

• Meanwhile, in a small pot, combine rice, 3⁄4 cup water (11⁄2 cups for 4 servings), and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes. • Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.

While rice cooks, open package of chicken* and drain off any excess liquid; season with salt and pepper. In a large pan, heat a drizzle of oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken in a single layer; cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes.

• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add onion and a pinch of salt and pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, 4-5 minutes. • Add chickpeas and half the garam masala (all for 4 servings); cook, stirring occasionally, until fragrant, 1-2 minutes.
