Ingredients
  

2 cups cooked brown rice

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs, diced

1 large sweet potato, peeled and cubed

1 red bell pepper, sliced

1 cup broccoli florets

3 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1 tablespoon honey

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon ground cumin

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh cilantro for garnish

Lime wedges for serving

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

    Prepare the Sweet Potatoes: In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato cubes with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for about 25 minutes, or until tender and golden, stirring halfway through.

      Cook the Chicken: While the sweet potatoes are roasting, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the diced chicken thighs and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes, until the chicken is browned and cooked through.

        Add Vegetables: Add the minced garlic, sliced red bell pepper, and broccoli florets to the skillet with the chicken. Stir in the soy sauce and honey, cooking for an additional 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

          Assemble the Bowl: In serving bowls, layer the cooked brown rice, roasted sweet potatoes, and the chicken and vegetable mixture.

            Garnish and Serve: Top with fresh cilantro and serve with lime wedges on the side for a zesty finish. Enjoy your delicious and nutritious Chicken and Sweet Potato Rice Bowl!
