Instructions
Preparing your BBQ Chicken Sweet Potato Bowl is both straightforward and enjoyable. Just follow these steps to create your delicious masterpiece:
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare Sweet Potatoes: Toss the diced sweet potatoes in olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper in a large mixing bowl.
3. Roast the Sweet Potatoes: Spread the sweet potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast in the oven for 25-30 minutes or until tender and slightly caramelized.
4. Cook the Chicken: While sweet potatoes are roasting, season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat, and add a bit of olive oil.
5. Grill the Chicken: Cook the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked. Brush BBQ sauce generously on both sides during the last few minutes of cooking.
6. Rest and Slice: Once cooked, remove the chicken from heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into bite-sized pieces.
7. Assemble the Bowl: In bowls, add a generous scoop of roasted sweet potatoes as the base. Top with sliced BBQ chicken.
8. Add Toppings: Drizzle with more BBQ sauce and top with fresh cilantro, avocado slices, and feta cheese if desired.
