Course: Main Course

Cuisine: American
Servings: 2 bowls

Ingredients

For the Roasted Chicken and Sweet Potatoes:

  • 2 tbsp. Avocado Oil
  • 1 medium Sweet Potato, peeled and cut into 1/2″ pieces
  • 8 oz. Chicken Breast, cut into bite-sized pieces

For the Homemade Seasoning Blend:

  • 1/2 tsp. Garlic Powder
  • 1/2 tsp. Onion Powder
  • 1/2 tsp. Kosher Salt or 1/4 tsp. Sea Salt
  • 1/2 tsp. Chili Powder
  • 1/4 tsp. Ground Cumin
  • 1/4 tsp. Cayenne Pepper
  • 1/8 tsp. Ground Cinnamon

For the Kale:

  • 2 packed cups Kale Leaves
  • 2 tsp. Olive Oil
  • 1 tsp. fresh Lemon Juice or Lime Juice
  • pinch of Salt

For the Creamy Chipotle Sauce:

  • 1/4 cup plain Greek Yogurt
  • 2 tbsp. Mayonnaise (like Duke’s or Hellman’s)
  • 1 tbsp. Chipotle Sauce or 1 tsp. finely chopped Chipotle in Adobo
  • 1 tsp. fresh Lemon Juice or Lime Juice
  • 1/2 tsp. Agave Syrup or Honey
  • 1/2 tsp. Kosher Salt or 1/4 tsp. Sea Salt, plus more to taste

For the Bowl / Toppings:

  • 2 cups cooked Brown Rice or White Rice
  • 1/4 cup crumbled Feta Cheese
  • 1 medium Avocado, sliced or diced
  • chopped Green Onions for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Step 1: Roast the Sweet Potatoes
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Mix the seasoning blend ingredients together in a small bowl and set aside. In a large mixing bowl, toss the diced sweet potatoes with half of the avocado oil (1 tbsp.) and half of the seasoning blend. Spread them out on a rimmed baking sheet, ensuring there’s a little space between each piece for even roasting. Roast these for about 10 minutes.

Step 2: Season and Roast the Chicken
While your sweet potatoes are roasting, prepare the chicken. Use the same mixing bowl to toss the chicken pieces with the remaining avocado oil and seasoning blend. Once the sweet potatoes have roasted for 10 minutes, remove them from the oven and give them a gentle toss to ensure even cooking. Nestle the seasoned chicken pieces onto the baking sheet with the sweet potatoes and return to the oven for another 15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

Step 3: Massage the Kale
While your chicken and sweet potatoes are roasting, massage the kale leaves with olive oil, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt for about one minute until tender. This step not only enhances the flavor but also makes the kale easier to digest.

Step 4: Make the Creamy Chipotle Sauce
In a bowl, combine Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, chipotle sauce, lemon juice, agave syrup, and a pinch of salt. Mix until well blended.

Step 5: Assemble the Bowls
Divide the cooked rice between two warm bowls. Top with massaged kale, roasted sweet potatoes, and chicken. Add slices of avocado and crumbled feta cheese. Garnish with chopped green onions if desired. Finally, drizzle the creamy chipotle sauce over everything.
