Ingredients
2 chicken breasts, sliced
2 sweet potatoes, cut into wedges
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp garlic powder
For the Avocado Sauce (optional but recommended):
1 ripe avocado
1 clove garlic
Juice of 1 lime
2 tbsp plain Greek yogurt (or dairy-free alternative)
Salt and pepper, to taste
2–3 tbsp water (to thin if needed)
Instructions
Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Toss sweet potato wedges in half the olive oil, paprika, and half the garlic powder.
Roast sweet potatoes in a 400°F oven or grill until tender and slightly crispy (about 25–30 minutes), flipping halfway through.
Season chicken with remaining olive oil, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Grill chicken slices for about 5–7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and charred.
Make the avocado sauce: Blend avocado, garlic, lime juice, Greek yogurt, salt, and pepper until smooth. Add water to thin as needed.
Assemble bowls with a base of sweet potatoes, sliced grilled chicken, and a drizzle of avocado sauce on top.
Serve warm or chilled for meal prep.
Notes
Add other veggies like roasted bell peppers, kale, or corn for extra color and nutrients.
Great for meal prep—store components separately and assemble when ready.
Substitute grilled tofu or chickpeas for a vegetarian option.
The avocado sauce doubles as a tasty dip or salad dressing.
