Finely dice the yellow onion and mince the garlic cloves.
Heat the olive oil in a large deep skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
Add the ground turkey and diced onion to the skillet, breaking the meat apart with a spatula until browned and the onion is translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic, ground cumin, smoked paprika, sea salt, and black pepper, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the dry jasmine rice and drained chickpeas to the pan, stirring to coat the grains in the spices and residual oil.
Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a boil.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet with a tight-fitting lid, and simmer for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender.
Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the raw baby spinach, covering for 2 minutes to allow the residual steam to wilt the greens.
Fluff the mixture with a fork and divide into four containers for meal prep.
