Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup cooked chicken breast, diced or shredded
  • 1 small sweet potato, peeled and diced
  • ½ cup bell pepper, chopped
  • ¼ cup red onion, finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • ½ tsp ground cumin
  • ¼ tsp smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the ingredients: peel and dice the sweet potato, chop the bell pepper and red onion, and shred the chicken breast.
  2. Parboil the sweet potatoes in boiling water for 3-4 minutes until slightly tender. Drain and set aside.
  3. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering.
  4. Add the chopped onions and bell peppers to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.
  5. Add the sweet potatoes to the skillet along with cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for 5-6 minutes until the vegetables start to brown.
  6. Stir in the shredded chicken and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through.
  7. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot with optional sides like avocado or toast.

Notes

  • For a leaner option, use boneless, skinless chicken breast.
  • Add spinach or kale for more greens.
  • Store in the fridge for up to 3 days for meal prep.
  • For a vegan version, substitute chicken with tofu or chickpeas.
  • Feel free to swap the sweet potato with zucchini or cauliflower for a lower-carb option.
