  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder

For the Bowl:

  • 1 cup cooked quinoa or rice (optional, for added texture)
  • 1 cup fresh spinach or mixed greens
  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your choice)
  • Drizzle of ranch dressing, Greek yogurt, or a sauce of your choice (optional)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crispy Potatoes:

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Toss the cubed potatoes with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  3. Spread the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  4. Bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

2. Cook the Chicken:

  1. While the potatoes are baking, season the chicken breasts with olive oil, salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 5-7 minutes per side, or until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  3. Remove from heat and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing it thinly. Drizzle with lemon juice, if desired.

3. Assemble the Bowls:

  1. In each bowl, start with a base of cooked quinoa or rice (optional).
  2. Add a handful of fresh spinach or mixed greens.
  3. Layer the crispy potatoes on top of the greens.
  4. Add the sliced chicken, cherry tomatoes, and red onion.
  5. Sprinkle with shredded cheese and garnish with fresh parsley.

4. Serve:

  1. Drizzle with ranch dressing, Greek yogurt, or your favorite sauce. Serve immediately!
