# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Combine chicken cubes with sea salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and chicken bouillon powder in a bowl. Drizzle olive oil and toss to coat evenly. Let sit while preparing vegetables.
02 -
Heat a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat for 1–2 minutes. Add the seasoned chicken in a single layer and cook undisturbed for 3–4 minutes. Stir and cook for another 3–4 minutes until chicken is browned and cooked through. Remove chicken, leaving juices in skillet.
03 -
Reduce heat to medium, add olive oil to the same skillet. Add sweet potatoes and toss in oil and pan juices. Spread evenly, cover skillet, and cook for 5 minutes. Uncover, stir, and cook uncovered until edges are browned and sweet potatoes are nearly tender, about 5 minutes.
04 -
Add sliced red bell pepper and yellow onion to skillet with sweet potatoes. Cook stirring frequently until vegetables soften and begin to caramelize, about 4–5 minutes. Stir in minced garlic, smoked paprika, sea salt, and black pepper. Cook 30 seconds until fragrant.
05 -
Add fresh spinach in handfuls, stirring each batch until wilted. Return cooked chicken and juices to skillet and stir to combine. Cook 2–3 minutes until heated through and flavors meld. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste, then serve.
# Additional Notes:
01 -
Allow the chicken to marinate briefly with spices to enhance flavor depth.
