Instructions
Creating BBQ Chicken & Roasted Sweet Potato Bowls is easy when you follow these straightforward steps:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Prepare Sweet Potatoes: In a mixing bowl, combine the cubed sweet potatoes with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the sweet potatoes are well coated.
3. Bake Sweet Potatoes: Spread the seasoned sweet potatoes on a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until they are tender and lightly caramelized, stirring halfway through for even cooking.
4. Prepare the Chicken: While the sweet potatoes are roasting, mix the shredded chicken with BBQ sauce in a separate bowl. Adjust the amount of sauce based on your preference.
5. Heat Chicken: In a large skillet over medium heat, warm the BBQ chicken until heated through. This should take about 5 minutes.
6. Assemble the Bowls: In serving bowls, layer the roasted sweet potatoes and BBQ chicken. Feel free to add any additional toppings you desire.
7. Serve Immediately: Enjoy your meal warm and fresh from the kitchen!
