Red and yellow peppers, orange sweet potatoes, scallion greens, and lime—okay, so we might be missing the BIV part of ROYGBIV, but the first four letters are well-represented on this plate. The bright and colorful veggie jumble is bursting with concentrated oven-roasted flavors, while the spice-rubbed chicken breasts on top bring Southwestern flair.

Instructions

Roast Sweet Potatoes
1

Wash and dry all produce. Adjust rack to upper position and preheat oven to 450 degrees. Peel sweet potatoes, then cut into ½-inch cubes. Toss on a baking sheet with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Roast in oven until tender, about 25 minutes total (we’ll be adding more items to the sheet after 10 minutes).

Prep
2

Core and seed bell peppers, then cut into 1-inch squares. Trim, then thinly slice scallions, keeping greens and whites separate. Zest lime into a medium bowl, then cut into halves.

Rub and Cook Chicken
3

Add 1 tsp Southwest spice blend (we sent more) and a large drizzle of olive oil to bowl with lime zest and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Pat chicken dry with a paper towel, then add to bowl and rub spice mixture into meat. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until no longer pink in center, 5-6 minutes per side.

Roast Bell Peppers
4

Once sweet potatoes have roasted 10 minutes, remove sheet from oven. Give sweet potatoes a toss and push toward one side of sheet. Add bell peppers to other side of sheet. Return sheet to oven and roast until both are tender, 12-15 minutes more.

Make Jumble
5

Once sweet potatoes and bell peppers are done, add to another medium bowl along with scallion whites, feta cheese, and a squeeze of lime. Season with salt, pepper, and more lime (to taste).

Plate and Serve
6

Thinly slice chicken. Divide jumble between plates, then top with chicken. Sprinkle with scallion greens and serve.
