A quick and easy recipe featuring tender chicken and caramelized sweet potatoes, topped with a creamy sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 0.5 tsp paprika
  • 0.25 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 0.5 tsp garlic powder
  • 0.5 tsp onion powder
  • 2 cups cooked white or brown rice
  • 0.5 cup Greek yogurt (plain, or mayonnaise)
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 1 tsp sriracha (or to taste)
  • 0.5 tsp cumin
  • 0.25 tsp paprika
  • Pinch of cayenne pepper (optional)
  • Salt, to taste
  • 1 cup steamed or sautéed green vegetables (e.g., spinach, broccoli, chopped cucumber)
  • Fresh cilantro or parsley (chopped, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Toss the cubed sweet potatoes with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Spread them out on a baking sheet in a single layer and roast for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until tender and caramelized.
  3. Season chicken cubes with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. In a skillet over medium-high heat, heat another tablespoon of olive oil. Add chicken in a single layer and cook for about 5-7 minutes until golden and cooked through.
  4. In a mixing bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, lime juice, sriracha, cumin, and paprika until smooth. Season with additional salt to taste.
  5. Cook the rice and steam or sauté the green vegetables until bright and tender.
  6. To assemble, divide the rice among bowls, top with roasted sweet potatoes, sautéed vegetables, and pan-seared chicken. Drizzle with creamy sauce and garnish with chopped cilantro or parsley. Serve immediately.
