Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and juices run clear. Remove from the grill and let it rest.

  2. 2

    Roast the Sweet Potatoes

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Peel and cube the sweet potatoes, toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for about 25-30 minutes or until tender and slightly caramelized.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Rice

    Cook the brown rice according to package instructions, then fluff it with a fork and set aside.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine shredded kale, warm roasted sweet potatoes, diced gala apples, sliced toasted almonds, and crumbled goat cheese. Drizzle with balsamic vinaigrette and toss gently to combine.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Slice the grilled chicken and serve it on a plate alongside the warm seasoned brown rice and the kale salad. Drizzle additional balsamic vinaigrette over the chicken if desired.
