  1. Peel the sweet potatoes, then cut the flesh into 1-inch chunks. Cut the chicken into 3/4-inch pieces, discarding any fat.
  2. Heat the oil in a large wok or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Once the oil shimmers, add the curry paste and cook, stirring, for no more than 1 minute. Add the chicken and stir to coat; cook, stirring, for 5 minutes or until the meat loses its raw look.
  3. Add the sweet potatoes and lentils, stirring to coat, then add the coconut milk and broth. Once the liquid comes to a boil, reduce the heat to medium-low, cover and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring every so often. The sweet potatoes should be just tender.
  4. Uncover; stir in the spinach in two batches. Cook for 3 or 4 minutes, just until wilted. Remove the wok or Dutch oven from the heat.
  5. Meanwhile, cut the lime in half and squeeze its juice into a small bowl. Cut the jalapeno pepper crosswise into thin rounds, if using. Coarsely chop the cilantro.
  6. Sprinkle the lime juice over the surface of the curry, then the pepper slices, if using, and the cilantro. Serve warm.
