Instructions

Chop the onion, sweet potato and carrots.
Heat 2 tablespoons of the avocado oil in a large (SUPER large) skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the onion, garlic, sweet potato and carrots. Stir well. Chop the broccoli and add it to the skillet. Stir well to combine.
Add half of the seasonings and sea salt. Stir well.
Chop the zucchini and add it to the skillet. Stir well.
Once all of the vegetables are in the pot/skillet, cover and cook 5 minutes.
Remove cover, stir and cook 3 minutes.
Bite into one of the pieces of sweet potato and decide if you want to cook longer. In my experience, the vegetables are good to go at this point, but if necessary, continue cooking to desired doneness.
Add 1 tablespoon of avocado oil to a separate large pot or dutch oven and heat to medium-high.
Add the raw chicken and seasonings. Allow the chicken to sit undisturbed for 3 minutes to brown.
Stir chicken well, cover, and cook until chicken is cooked through, about 8 minutes.
Remove the cover and drain any liquid from the pot.
Fill meal prep bowls with chicken and vegetables, using your own discretion for portions of both.
