Instructions
1.) Place chili powder, cumin, coriander, paprika, and garlic powder into a large ziploc bag. Shake to combine. Add in lime juice. Shake again. Add chicken & 1 tbsp olive oil. Massage to mix evenly. Place in fridge for at least 30 minutes, or overnight. 2.) Prepare all of your vegetables—cubing the sweet potatoes, & slicing bell peppers and onions. 3.) Make the aioli by combining mayonnaise, minced garlic, honey, and hot sauce. Making it earlier in the day will give it so much more flavor, but can be made with dinner as well. 4.) Cook rice according to package directions, set aside once done. 5.) Add olive oil to a pan over medium heat. Add sweet potatoes. Season with salt to taste. Cover and cook until just softened. Remove and set aside in a bowl. 6.) Add 1 tbsp olive oil to the pan. Add bell peppers and onions, season with salt to taste. Cover & cook for about 10 minutes. Add balsamic vinegar, stir. Cook until softened & caramel in color. Set aside in a separate bowl. 7.) Add remaining olive oil to the pan. Pour chicken from the bag & smooth into a thin layer. Cook 5-7 minutes before stirring & cooking until fully done. Remove from heat. 8.) In a bowl scoop a generous portion of rice. Arrange veggies & chicken on top. Drizzle aioli on top. 9.) Serve, devour, ENJOY!View original recipe
