Description
A heartwarming rice bowl packed with tender chicken, sweet roasted potatoes, and vibrant veggies, perfect for chilly evenings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 chicken breasts
- 2 sweet potatoes
- 1 cup rice (any variety)
- 2 cups mixed fresh veggies (e.g., bell peppers, broccoli, carrots)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce or teriyaki sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Peel and cube the sweet potatoes; toss them with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Spread them out on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for about 25-30 minutes until tender and golden.
- Cook your rice according to package instructions while the sweet potatoes are roasting.
- Add a splash of olive oil to a skillet over medium heat and cook the seasoned chicken breasts for about 6-7 minutes per side until fully cooked through and golden brown.
- Toss in your mixed veggies into the same skillet and stir-fry for just a few minutes until vibrant and slightly tender.
- Assemble by placing a generous serving of rice in a bowl, topping it with the roasted sweet potatoes, sliced chicken, and stir-fried veggies, then drizzle with soy sauce or teriyaki sauce before serving.
Notes
For adding a refreshing twist, consider lime juice or fresh cilantro. For extra crunch, top with crispy fried onions or sesame seeds.
