Ingredients

Grilled Chicken:

  • Chicken breasts or thighs

  • Olive oil

  • Garlic powder

  • Paprika

  • Chili powder

  • Cumin

  • Salt and pepper

  • Fresh lime juice

Sweet Potato Fries:

  • Sweet potatoes, cut into fries

  • Olive oil

  • Smoked paprika

  • Garlic powder

  • Salt

Chunky Guacamole:

  • Ripe avocados

  • Red onion, finely chopped

  • Cherry tomatoes, diced

  • Fresh cilantro, chopped

  • Lime juice

  • Salt and pepper


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss sweet potato fries with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and salt. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through.

  2. Meanwhile, coat chicken with olive oil, lime juice, and seasonings. Grill or pan-cook on medium-high heat for 6–8 minutes per side until cooked through. Let rest, then slice.

  3. For the guacamole, mash avocados roughly in a bowl. Stir in red onion, cherry tomatoes, cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Keep it chunky.

  4. Assemble the dish with a bed of sweet potato fries, grilled chicken slices, and a generous scoop of guacamole.

  5. Serve with lime wedges for extra zing.

Notes

Add jalapeños or chili flakes to the guacamole for heat. You can also marinate the chicken in advance for deeper flavor. Great for meal prep or a healthy dinner plate.
