- 11 1/2 tsp. curry powder, divided
- 12 tsp. kosher salt, divided, plus more
- 11 tsp. freshly ground black pepper, divided
- 11 (1/2-lb.) block Greek or Bulgarian feta, sliced 1/2" thick
- 14 garlic cloves, crushed

Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°. Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in a large heatproof skillet over medium. Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 6, 8 minutes. Add greens in handfuls, letting wilt before adding another handful, and cook, stirring occasionally, until bright green and crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Add 1/2 tsp. curry powder; season with 1 tsp. salt and 1/2 tsp. pepper. Stir to combine, then add 1 cup water. Lay feta over greens and transfer skillet to oven. Bake until feta is soft, 10, 12 minutes.
Meanwhile, heat remaining 4 Tbsp. oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant and just beginning to turn golden around the edges, about 2 minutes. Add chickpeas, season with 1 tsp. salt and 1/2 tsp. pepper, and continue to cook, tossing occasionally, until browned and crisp around the edges, 8, 10 minutes. Add remaining 1 tsp. curry powder and toss to combine.
Stir yogurt and lemon juice in a small bowl; season with a pinch of salt.
Scatter chickpeas and toasted garlic over greens and feta. Dollop with seasoned yogurt. Serve with toast alongside.
