recipe

  • Step 1
    Preheat the oven to 400°F. Peel & cut the sweet potatoes into cubes.
  • Step 2
    Add the sweet potatoes to a parchment-lined sheet tray. Drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt, pepper & paprika. Mix then bake for 20-25 min at 400°F.
  • Step 3
    Meanwhile, cut the chicken into cubes.
  • Step 4
    Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the chicken. Season with salt & pepper. Cook for 4-5 min on each side, or until fully cooked.

    Meanwhile, prepare the yogurt sauce. In a bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, grated garlic, lemon zest & juice. Add a drizzle of olive oil. Season with salt & pepper. Mix to combine. Set aside in a cool place.
  • Step 6
    Check the chicken for doneness. Once fully cooked (internal temp reaches 165°F), remove from the heat & keep warm.

    Once golden brown & cooked through, remove the sweet potatoes from the oven.

    Reheat quinoa according to package instructions.
