Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast
  • 2 medium-sized potatoes, diced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (for chicken)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (for potatoes)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/2 cup low-fat Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Slice the boneless, skinless chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large mixing bowl.
  3. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper to the chicken. Mix well to coat all pieces evenly.
  4. Spread the seasoned chicken evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  5. In a separate bowl, toss the diced potatoes with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  6. Spread the seasoned potatoes on another baking sheet in a single layer.
  7. Place both baking sheets in the preheated oven. Bake the chicken for 20-25 minutes until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and the potatoes are golden brown and fork-tender.
  8. Stir the chicken and potatoes halfway through cooking for even browning.
  9. While the chicken and potatoes are baking, steam the broccoli. Bring about an inch of water to a boil in a small pot, add the broccoli florets, cover, and steam for 3-4 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp.
  10. Remove the broccoli and set aside. In the same pot, steam the halved cherry tomatoes for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.
  11. In a small bowl, mix the low-fat Greek yogurt with fresh lemon juice until smooth. Optionally, add chopped garlic or herbs for extra flavor.
  12. Once the chicken and potatoes are done, let them cool for a couple of minutes.
  13. To assemble the bowl, start with a base of roasted potatoes in the center of a large bowl.
  14. Add a generous portion of baked chicken on top of the potatoes.
  15. Arrange the steamed broccoli florets around the chicken.
  16. Scatter the steamed cherry tomatoes over the top.
  17. Drizzle the Greek yogurt sauce over the entire bowl.
  18. Finish with a sprinkle of fresh chopped parsley for garnish.
