Description

 

These buffalo chicken sweet potato bowls are made with roasted sweet potatoes, chicken breasts, broccoli, avocado, green onions, and a creamy Greek yogurt buffalo ranch dressing. They work well for dinner or meal prep when the avocado and dressing are added after reheating.


Ingredients

For the Sheet Pan

  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt, divided
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 cups broccoli florets

For the Buffalo Ranch Dressing

  • 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons buffalo sauce
  • 1 tablespoon ranch seasoning

For Serving

  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • Extra buffalo sauce, optional


Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • Add the diced sweet potatoes to the sheet pan. Toss with 1 tablespoon olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and black pepper.
  • Spread the sweet potatoes onto one side of the sheet pan. Roast for 15 minutes.
  • While the sweet potatoes roast, coat the chicken breasts with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  • Remove the sheet pan from the oven. Add the chicken breasts and broccoli florets to the pan.
  • Return the pan to the oven and roast for about 20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • Let the chicken rest for a few minutes, then slice.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, buffalo sauce, and ranch seasoning until smooth.
  • Divide the roasted sweet potatoes, broccoli, and sliced chicken among bowls or meal prep containers.
  • Top with avocado and green onions.
  • Drizzle with buffalo ranch dressing and add extra buffalo sauce if desired.

Notes

  • Roast the sweet potatoes first so they have enough time to soften before the chicken and broccoli are added.
  • Let the chicken rest before slicing.
  • Add the buffalo ranch dressing after reheating if making these bowls for meal prep.
  • Keep the avocado separate and add it just before serving for the best texture.
  • Extra buffalo sauce is optional.

Storage and Reheating

  • Store the roasted chicken, broccoli, and sweet potatoes in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
  • Keep the avocado separate until serving.
  • Reheat the chicken, broccoli, and sweet potatoes before adding the dressing and avocado.
  • Freezing instructions are not provided.
