Spice Grilled Chicken with Grilled Sweet PotatoesServes 4

Step 1: Prepare the chicken

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breast
  • 2 limes, juiced and zested
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon sweet paprika
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon hot red pepper flakes
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced finely
  • Salt and pepper

Directions

In a medium sized mixing bowl, mix the soy sauce through garlic. Season with salt and pepper and whisk to combine. Add the chicken to the marinade, cover, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Step 2: Prepare the sweet potatoes

Ingredients

  • 1 pound sweet potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper

Directions

Preheat grill to medium high. Clean sweet potatoes, cutting off any bad spots. Cut in half (lengthwise), then cut into quarters (lengthwise). Toss potato wedges with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Place potatoes on medium hot grill and cook for about 8 – 10 minutes on one side. Turn potatoes and cook for another 8 minutes or until tender.

If your potatoes start to get crispy but are still hard in the middle you can place them on a sheet pan in the oven at 375° for 5 minutes or longer to finish the cooking process.
