4 Large chicken breasts (Around 1,000 grams uncooked)
3 Large sweet potatoes (around 900 grams)
2 Large heads of broccoli (Around 850g)
2 Tbsps olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
*NOTE: Use sauce to spice up the meal prep so each container doesn’t taste the same.
Chicken Meal Prep Instructions:
Pre-heat your oven to 425 Degrees
In a large bowl weigh out your sweet potatoes
Next, clean & wash them, then set them aside on a piece of paper towel to dry
Now, weigh out your broccoli
Clean and wash your broccoli, and set it aside on a paper towel to dry as well
On a cutting board quarter the potatoes with a knife
Add the quartered potatoes to a large bowl, along with 1 Tbsp of olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste
Add the potatoes to a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper
Now cut the broccoli into florette’s and add them to a large baking lined with parchment paper
Drizzle 1 Tbsp of olive oil over the broccoli, add salt and pepper to taste, and then work the olive oil around the broccoli with your hands
Next take out the chicken, and trim the excess fat off with a pair of kitchen shears
Once the fat is removed, cut the chicken into bite sized pieces
Add the pieces of chicken to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper
Bake the chicken and broccoli for 12-15 minutes
Keep the sweet potatoes in the oven for an additional 15ish minutes (so 30 minutes total)
Now take your food scale back out and weigh your chicken in a large bowl
Split your chicken up evenly between 4 meal prep containers
Do the same thing for your broccoli and sweet potatoes
Cover the containers and store them up to 5 days in the fridge, or freeze for several months.
