Description
These Buddha bowls start with fluffy jasmine rice, pile on the veggies and chicken, and finish with a delicious no-cook peanut sauce. The beauty of this dinner is that each bowl can be customized to everyone’s liking. You can simply set out the ingredients and let everyone make their own. For a vegan version, try swapping the chicken for tofu or another hearty vegetable like mushrooms. For a short-cut, you could go with pre-cooked rice (white or brown rice, and shelf-stable or frozen) and heat it in the microwave. The recipe is a Yummly original created by Kate McMillan.
Ingredients
- 1 lb. boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil (divided)
- 2 tsp. ground cumin
- 3/4 tsp. ground ginger
- 1 1/2 tsp. kosher salt (divided)
- 2 sweet potatoes (about 1 lb. total)
- 1/2 tsp. black pepper
- 1 1/4 cups jasmine rice (or other white rice)
- 1/2 English cucumber
- 1 1/2 cups shredded cabbage (red or green)
- 6 Tbsp. creamy peanut butter (salted)
- 2 Tbsp. reduced-sodium soy sauce
- 4 tsp. toasted sesame oil
- 4 tsp. rice wine vinegar
- 2 Tbsp. hot water (or 3 Tbsp. for a thinner sauce)
- Sriracha hot sauce (optional)
- 1 cup shelled edamame (thawed if frozen)
- salted peanuts (optional, for serving)
Directions
- Preheat oven to 425°F.
- Place chicken on one half of a sheet pan and toss with 1 Tbsp. olive oil. In a small bowl, combine the cumin, ginger, and 3/4 tsp. salt; sprinkle evenly over chicken, turning to coat. Peel sweet potatoes and cut into 1/2-inch cubes. Add them to the other side of the sheet pan and toss with remaining 1 Tbsp. olive oil, then sprinkle with remaining 3/4 tsp. salt and the pepper. Spread into an even layer.
- Bake chicken and sweet potatoes until chicken is no longer pink when cut in the thickest part and sweet potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork, 18-20 minutes.
