Trim off spinach roots and remove bruised and yellowed leaves; discard. Rinse spinach well, drain, and coarsely chop.

(If made ahead, cover and chill up to a day.) Return drained spinach liquid to pan; add garlic, paprika, and chili powder. Boil, uncovered, over high heat until reduced to about ¼ cup, 3-5 minutes. Add oil, preserved lemon, and lemon juice. (If made ahead, cover and chill up to a day.) Top greens with tomatoes and pour dressing over the vegetables.
