Add paprika, cinnamon, ginger, and turmeric and roast, stirring constantly, for 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in onion, garlic, and bay leaf. Pour in olive oil and mix to combine.
• Mix chicken, coconut milk, yogurt, tomato paste, salt, and pepper into the spices in the skillet. Stir well to combine. Mix in chickpeas, peas, and pineapple. Bring mixture to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 20 to 25 minutes. Remove bay leaf and stir in lemon juice and cayenne pepper. Simmer for 5 more minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning to your liking.

• In a medium bowl, stir together yogurt, salt, pepper, cloves, and ginger. Mix in garlic, paprika, cumin, cinnamon, and coriander. Set aside.
• Rinse chicken under cold water, and pat dry with paper towels. Place chicken in a large resealable plastic bag. Pour yogurt mixture over chicken, press air out of bag, and seal. Turn the bag over several times to distribute marinade. Place bag in a bowl, and refrigerate 8 hours, or overnight, turning bag occasionally.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for direct medium heat.
• Remove chicken from bag, and discard marinade. With paper towels, wipe off excess marinade. Spray chicken pieces with olive oil spray.
• Place chicken on the grill, and cook about 2 minutes. Turn, and cook 2 minutes more. Then arrange the chicken to receive indirect heat, and cook approximately 35 to 40 minutes, to an internal temperature of 180 degrees F.

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over high heat. Add 2 tablespoons vegetable oil.
• Season chicken with salt and pepper and add to hot pan. Brown on both sides. Cook in batches if needed.
• Remove chicken from pan and add onion, garlic, and ginger. Cut a slit into the chile lengthwise and add to pan. Saute the onion mixture until softened, about 3-5 minutes. Add spices and cook for 30 seconds.
• Add tomatoes and 1/2 cup water and stir. Add chicken back to pan and bring up to a simmer. Cover and simmer until chicken is cooked through and sauce is thickened, about 30 minutes. Turn chicken occasionally throughout cooking.
