Instructions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
Season chicken breasts with 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp garlic powder, paprika, and black pepper. Place on one baking sheet.
Step 3
Toss sweet potato cubes with 2 tbsp olive oil and remaining 1 tsp salt. Spread on the second baking sheet.
Step 4
Roast chicken for 25-30 minutes until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Roast sweet potatoes for 30-35 minutes until tender.
Step 5
While roasting, cook quinoa: In a large pot, combine 3 cups quinoa with 6 cups water. Bring to boil, reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Fluff with fork.
Step 6
Steam broccoli florets for 5-7 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp. Toss with lemon juice.
Step 7
Hard-boil eggs: Place eggs in a pot, cover with water, bring to boil, then cover and remove from heat. Let sit for 12 minutes, then cool in ice water and peel.
Step 8
Slice chicken into strips. Portion all components into 5 meal containers: each with 1 chicken breast (approx. 200g cooked), ¾ cup quinoa, 1 cup sweet potatoes, 1 cup broccoli, 3 hard-boiled eggs, and ½ sliced avocado.
Step 9
Store in airtight containers in refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheat chicken, quinoa, and veggies before serving; keep eggs and avocado cold.
