How to Make BBQ Chicken Bowl

Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Set your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2: Season and Cook Chicken

Rub the chicken with olive oil and spices (paprika, garlic, onion powder, chili powder, salt, and pepper).

Cook on a skillet or grill pan for 5–6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.

In the last minute, brush with BBQ sauce and let it caramelize.

Let the chicken rest before slicing.

Step 3: Roast the Sweet Potatoes
Toss diced sweet potatoes with olive oil, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper.

Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and tender.

Step 4: Assemble the Bowls
Divide quinoa or rice into serving bowls.

Add roasted sweet potatoes, corn, diced red bell pepper, avocado slices, and BBQ chicken.

Step 5: Finish and Serve
Drizzle with extra BBQ sauce and sprinkle with fresh cilantro.

Serve immediately.

Serving Suggestions

Pair with iced tea or lemonade

Serve with extra BBQ sauce or ranch dressing

Add tortilla chips or pita on the side

Variations & Add-Ins

Swap chicken for tofu or tempeh for a vegetarian version

Storage & Leftovers

Fridge: Store in containers for up to 4 days

Reheat: Microwave gently or warm on stovetop

Keep avocado separate until serving to avoid browning
