A delightful and satisfying BBQ Chicken Sweet Potato Bowl that combines roasted sweet potatoes with BBQ chicken, corn, black beans, avocado, and red onion for a quick and flavorful meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1 cup BBQ sauce
  • 1 cup corn (canned or frozen)
  • 1 cup black beans (canned, drained and rinsed)
  • 1 avocado, diced
  • 1/2 cup red onion, diced
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Wash and dry the sweet potatoes, then cut each one lengthwise.
  3. Arrange the sweet potato halves on a baking sheet, cut side up.
  4. Roast for 25–30 minutes, or until a fork slides easily into the flesh.
  5. Toss the shredded chicken with BBQ sauce until evenly coated.
  6. Once sweet potatoes are cooked, use a spoon to scoop out a portion of the flesh from the center of each half.
  7. Fill each sweet potato half with BBQ chicken, then top with corn, black beans, diced avocado, and red onion.
  8. Season with salt and pepper, and sprinkle with chopped cilantro.
  9. Serve immediately or portion into meal prep containers.

Notes

Reserve the scooped sweet potato flesh to mash into filling or add on top for extra creaminess. Use a lower-sodium BBQ sauce for a healthier option.
