  • 2 teaspoons fresh garlic, minced
  • 1 cup BBQ sauce
  • 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Prepare a baking dish with nonstick spray.
  2. Peel and cube sweet potatoes into bite-sized pieces. Toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  3. Spread the sweet potatoes in the baking dish and roast for 25-30 minutes until tender and caramelized.
  4. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper. In a skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon olive oil and cook the chicken for about 5 minutes per side until golden brown.
  5. Pour BBQ sauce over the chicken, coating it well. Cook for an additional few minutes until heated through.
  6. Assemble the bowls by layering roasted sweet potatoes at the bottom and topping with sliced BBQ chicken. Drizzle any remaining sauce on top.
