Print Recipe

A balanced and nutritious bowl featuring protein-rich chicken, sweet potatoes, and rice, customizable with your favorite veggies.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb chicken breast
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes
  • 1 cup rice (brown or white)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 cup broccoli or other vegetables (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Peel and cube the sweet potatoes, then toss them with olive oil, salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes until tender.
  3. While the sweet potatoes are roasting, cook the rice according to package instructions.
  4. Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Heat a skillet over medium heat, and cook the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked.
  5. In the last few minutes of cooking, add broccoli or other vegetables to the pan if desired.
  6. Once everything is ready, assemble the rice bowl with a base of rice, topped with roasted sweet potatoes and sliced chicken. Serve warm with optional toppings.

Notes

Cut sweet potatoes evenly for consistent roasting. Let chicken rest before slicing for juiciness.
