  • Author: Luna
  • Total Time: 1 minute

Ingredients

– 4 medium-sized chicken breasts
– 2 large sweet potatoes
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 1 teaspoon paprika
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon onion powder
– 1 teaspoon ground cumin
– ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional for heat)
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)


Instructions

Now that you have your ingredients ready, let’s walk through the process of making Grilled Chicken with Sweet Potato Fries step by step:

1. Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
2. Prepare the Chicken Marinade: In a small bowl, mix olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper.
3. Marinate the Chicken: Coat the chicken breasts evenly with the marinade. Let the chicken sit for 10-15 minutes for maximum flavor.
4. Prep the Sweet Potatoes: While the chicken is marinating, peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into fries or wedges.
5. Season the Sweet Potatoes: In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato fries with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
6. Cook the Sweet Potatoes: Spread the fries on a baking sheet. Bake them in the oven at 425°F (220°C) for about 25-30 minutes until they are crispy, flipping halfway through for even cooking.
7. Grill the Chicken: Once marinated, place the chicken breasts on the grill. Cook for 6-8 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
8. Rest the Chicken: Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes to allow juices to redistribute.
9. Serve: Slice the chicken, and serve it alongside the sweet potato fries. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.

With these simple steps, you’ll create a fantastic meal that everyone at your table will rave about!
