Have you had a power bowl before? They are one of my favorite things to eat and they keep me on track all year long. Wellness never tasted so good and you don’t have to sacrifice on flavor to bring yourself a healthy and delicious meal. These bowls are jam-packed with so many good for you nutrients that keep you full and going all day long.
Let us talk about the star of these bowls. The blackened chicken. I am always making this blackened chicken. The chicken gets blackened with McCormick’s quality spices. It creates the most incredible spice rub and leaves a black spiced pan seared crust on the chicken. It is bursting with so much flavor in each and every bite!
How do you make blackened chicken?
Chili powder, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, italian seasoning, salt and pepper all come together in this perfect spice rub. Oil each side of the chicken breasts and rub with the spice rub. Add a tablespoon of olive oil to a medium sized skillet and cook the chicken breasts on medium high heat and cook on each side until cooked throughout.
Is blackened chicken burnt?
Blackening is a cooking technique and while it may appear burnt, the dark colored and deeply flavored crust is a result of the charred spices.
The thing that I LOVE about power bowls is that they are also perfect for meal prep. It is easy to roast a pan of fresh veggies and chick peas. There are so many healthy foods that are included in this meal. Avocado, broccoli, peppers, broccoli, chick peas, and red cabbage come together to create this power bowl.
Low carb and keto friendly this a fresh and delicious meal that you will crave all of the time. It has so many health benefits and it is packed with protein and fresh vegetables. These power bowls are perfect for a healthy lifestyle, and this blackened chicken recipe will be used all of the time.
I know that you are going to love these delicious and healthy bowls just as much as I do!
