A hearty southwest chicken and potato bowl packed with bold spices, tender chicken, and fresh toppings. This is a satisfying all-in-one meal for busy days.
Ingredients
- For the chicken: 1 ½ pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon chili powder, 1 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, ½ teaspoon garlic powder, ½ teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon black pepper
- For the potatoes: 1 ½ pounds russet potatoes, cut into 1 inch cubes, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon chili powder, ½ teaspoon paprika, ½ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- For the bowl: 1 cup cooked corn kernels, 1 cup canned black beans (drained and rinsed), 1 cup cherry tomatoes (halved), 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, ¼ cup chopped cilantro
- For the sauce: ½ cup plain Greek yogurt, 2 tablespoons lime juice, 1 tablespoon olive oil, ½ teaspoon garlic powder, ¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Toss cubed potatoes with olive oil, chili powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Spread them in a single layer on the baking sheet.
- Roast potatoes for 25 to 30 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they are golden and tender.
- While the potatoes roast, rub the chicken breasts with olive oil, chili powder, smoked paprika, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken for 6 to 7 minutes per side until it is fully cooked and nicely browned.
- Ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F for safe consumption.
- Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes, then slice it into bite-sized pieces.
- In a small bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, lime juice, olive oil, garlic powder, and salt until smooth.
- Assemble your bowls by adding roasted potatoes, sliced chicken, corn, black beans, and cherry tomatoes.
- Top with shredded cheddar cheese, drizzle with the sauce, and finish with chopped cilantro before serving.
Notes
- For extra flavor, broil the assembled bowls for 2 to 3 minutes to lightly melt the cheese before adding the sauce.
