Spicy Chicken + Sweet Potato Bowls
From: Taylor @ www.thesarcasticblonde.com/2017/06/spicy-chicken-sweet-potato-bowls.html
I love having recipes like this on hand for quick and easy meals to throw together last minute or to prep in advance to save more time during the week! There is so much flavor packed into these bowls and you change them up with any different vegetables you like! This is a perfect recipe to make in advance to meal prep healthy lunches to take to work or to have dinner ready and waiting for you when you get home!
Prep time: 10 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 40 min
Serves: 1 or 2
Ingredients
2 lbs. boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into small pieces
3 tablespoons spicy seasoning mix (see below)
a few tablespoons of olive oil
3 sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
5-6 cups broccoli florets (broccolini FTW)
coarse sea salt and freshly cracked pepper
anything you want to add to your bowls : avocado / hummus / lemon juice / chives / olive oil for serving
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
Toss the chicken pieces with the spices and a quick stream of olive oil.
Stir to combine; store in the fridge for about 30 minutes while you prep other ingredients.
Arrange the vegetables on their own sheet pans (preferably ones with edges to catch drips, etc.).
Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle generously with salt.
Arrange the chicken on a separate sheet pan.
Bake all ingredients for 12-15 minutes.
Remove the broccoli and chicken.
Stir sweet potatoes and roast another 15 minutes or so.
Done!
Divide your servings out into containers and be happy you have meal starters ready for the week!
For the spicy seasoning mix, you can use Perfect Pinch Cajun Seasoning, but I used a homemade mix of the following :
Seasoning Mix:
1 teaspoon salt (original calls for 2 tsp, feel free to add more if needed!)
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2½ teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1¼ teaspoons dried oregano
1¼ teaspoons dried thyme
½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
