  • Author: Chef Ethan Sam
  • Total Time: 45 minute

Ingredients

– 2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 1 cup BBQ sauce (your choice of flavor)
– 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon paprika
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– 4 cups coleslaw mix (cabbage and carrots)
– 1/2 cup mayonnaise
– 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
– 1 tablespoon sugar (optional)
– Fresh parsley or cilantro, for garnish (optional)


Instructions

Creating BBQ Chicken Bowls with Sweet Potatoes and Coleslaw is easy if you follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare Sweet Potatoes: In a large bowl, toss the diced sweet potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
3. Roast Sweet Potatoes: Spread the sweet potatoes on a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast for 25-30 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized, stirring halfway through.
4. Cook Chicken: While the sweet potatoes roast, heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
5. Grill Chicken: Cook the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked. Brush with BBQ sauce in the last few minutes of cooking to allow the sauce to caramelize.
6. Prepare Coleslaw: In a separate bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar (if using), salt, and pepper. Add the coleslaw mix and toss until well combined. Set aside.
7. Slice Chicken: Once the chicken is fully cooked, remove it from the heat and let it rest for a few minutes. Slice it into bite-sized pieces.
8. Assemble Bowls: In serving bowls, layer the roasted sweet potatoes, sliced BBQ chicken, and coleslaw.
9. Garnish: If desired, garnish with fresh parsley or cilantro for added color and flavor.

By following these straightforward steps, you’ll have a flavorful and nutritious meal ready to enjoy in no time!
