Preheat the oven to 450°F. Wash and dry the spinach. Drain and rinse the chickpeas. In a bowl, whisk together the tomato sauce, cream, and as much of the tomato achaar as you'd like, depending on how spicy you'd like the dish to be. Between the two trays, evenly divide the spinach, drained chickpeas, creamy tomato sauce, and half the curry powder. Season with salt and pepper; stir to thoroughly combine.

Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Place in an even layer on top of the prepared base. Season with salt, pepper, and the remaining curry powder. Turn to coat. Tightly cover the trays with foil and bake 22 to 24 minutes, or until the liquid is slightly thickened and the chicken is cooked through. Remove from the oven; carefully remove the foil. Stir to combine.
