Ingredients

  • Chicken Breasts: Lean protein that cooks quickly for a hearty base.
  • Baby Potatoes: Small potatoes that roast beautifully; their creaminess complements the dish.
  • Olive Oil: To help crisp the potatoes and enhance flavor; can substitute with avocado oil.
  • Seasonings (Garlic Powder, Paprika, Salt, Pepper): Basic spices to bring out the chicken and potato flavors.
  • Fresh Spinach: Adds color and nutrition; feel free to substitute with kale or other greens.
  • Cherry Tomatoes: Fresh and juicy additions that provide a bright contrast to the dish.

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. Cut baby potatoes in half and place them on the baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper, tossing to coat.
  3. Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until crispy and tender, flipping halfway through.
  4. While the potatoes are roasting, season the chicken breasts with the same spices used for the potatoes for consistent flavor.
  5. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the seasoned chicken breasts for about 6-7 minutes per side until cooked through and juices run clear.
  6. In the last few minutes of cooking, add the fresh spinach and cherry tomatoes to the skillet, sautéing just until the spinach wilts.
  7. Once everything is cooked, assemble your bowls by adding the roasted potatoes, chicken, sautéed spinach, and tomatoes. Drizzle with extra olive oil if desired, and enjoy!

Notes

  • Use sweet potatoes for a twist on your bowl.
  • Marinate the chicken for more intense flavor.
  • Customize the veggies based on your preference.
