1 small sweet potato, diced
1/2 cup tahini paste
1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
3/4 cup fresh parsley and cilantro mix
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp dried oregano, basil, and thyme mix
1 tsp lemon zest
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
Toss diced sweet potatoes and garbanzo beans with olive oil, salt, pepper, and spices.
Spread on a parchment-lined baking sheet and roast for 25 minutes until tender and crispy.
Combine garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, herbs, and lemon zest in a bowl.
Season chicken breasts with the spice mixture, salt, and pepper.
Grill chicken on medium-high heat for 6-7 minutes per side.
Rest chicken for 10 minutes then slice into strips.
Whisk tahini, yogurt, and fresh herbs together to create the dressing.
Assemble bowls by layering roasted vegetables and chicken, drizzled with the tahini dressing.
Notes
Store the dressing separately from the greens and chicken to keep components fresh for up to 3 days in the refrigerator. Ensure tahini is well stirred before using for the best consistency.
