[ RECIPE ] Paprika Chicken with Spicy Sweet Potato Salad

Hey everyone!

I feel like it’s been a good while since I’ve last had the pleasure of sharing a recipe with you. What a busy September it’s been for me.

I’ve been involved with a lot of gym activity, fitness-tracker testing, walking, exercising, cooking etc but it’s nice to be back sharing a brand new healthy recipe that I’m sure you’ll really enjoy making.

It’s amazing just how adaptable salads can be.

You can put almost anything in them and more or less most of them will be nutritious and taste great too. It’s just about experimenting with flavours, spices and ingredients and before you know it you’ll get used to eating this way.

This recipe is no different. It combines simple vegetables, store cupboard staples and a few spices and it tastes great.

I’ve used Gold Standard Nutrition’s already-cooked steamed chicken fillets as they taste great and once you slice them up, you simply add them to the pan to heat through with the rest of the ingredients.

Let me know your thoughts as always and enjoy the rest of your week 🙂
