This bowl turns a store-bought rotisserie chicken into a golden, spiced lunch in just a few minutes. Shredded chicken gets tossed with turmeric and paprika in a hot pan, then piled over microwave rice with a handful of baby spinach stirred in to wilt. It's naturally gluten-free, needs just one pan, and comes together faster than takeout.
