Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts cubed
  • 2 sweet potatoes diced
  • 0.5 cup barbecue sauce
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 1 cup corn kernels

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 425F. Toss sweet potatoes with 1 tablespoon oil, paprika, and salt, then roast 20-25 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, cook the cubed chicken in the remaining oil over medium-high until browned, about 6 minutes.
  3. Stir in the barbecue sauce and garlic powder and simmer 3 minutes.
  4. Warm the corn in the skillet or microwave.
  5. Build bowls with sweet potatoes, BBQ chicken, and corn, then divide into containers.

Notes

Roast the sweet potatoes a little firm so they hold their shape all week.
