  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 bunch kale, stems removed and chopped
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven and prep ingredients: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Season ingredients: In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato, chicken, and kale with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  3. Roast: Spread the seasoned ingredients in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast for 30-40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through, the sweet potatoes are tender, and the kale is crispy.
  4. Assemble bowls: Divide the cooked rice between two bowls. Top with the roasted sweet potato, chicken, and kale.
  5. Add sauce and serve: Drizzle with your favorite sauce, if desired, and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Sweet Potato: You can use other root vegetables, such as butternut squash or carrots, instead of sweet potato.
  • Chicken: You can use boneless, skinless chicken thighs instead of chicken breasts.
  • Kale: You can use other leafy greens, such as spinach or collard greens, instead of kale.
  • Rice: You can use any type of cooked rice, such as white rice, brown rice, or quinoa.
  • Sauce: Get creative with your sauce! You can use a store-bought sauce or make your own. Some ideas include tahini dressing, lemon vinaigrette, sriracha mayo, or a simple honey-mustard dressing.
  • Meal Prep: These bowls are great for meal prep. You can roast the ingredients ahead of time and assemble the bowls when you're ready to eat.
