Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb chicken breast, chopped into chunks
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- Salt & black pepper to taste
- Juice of 1/2 lemon
- 2 cups sweet potatoes, peeled & cubed
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 1 garlic clove, minced
Instructions
- Prep & Roast the Sweet Potatoes: Toss sweet potato cubes with olive oil, salt, pepper, and smoked paprika. Roast at 400°F for 25 minutes until golden and tender.
- Season & Grill the Chicken: In a bowl, mix chicken chunks with olive oil, lemon juice, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Grill or pan-sear over medium-high heat until the chicken is charred and juicy, about 5-7 minutes.
- Sauté the Broccoli: Heat a bit of olive oil in a pan, sauté minced garlic for about 30 seconds, then add the broccoli florets. Cook until crisp-tender, about 5–6 minutes.
- Build That Plate: On a plate, layer the grilled chicken, roasted sweet potatoes, and sautéed broccoli.
- Serve Hot & Dig In: Serve immediately, and add fresh herbs or a sprinkle of chili flakes if you enjoy a bit of heat!
Notes
Make sure to not overcrowd the pan when grilling chicken or roasting sweet potatoes for even cooking. Feel free to add other veggies like bell peppers or zucchini.
