Spiced Chicken & Sweet Potato Skillet

Ingredients:

• 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
• 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• ½ teaspoon cinnamon
• ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
• Salt and black pepper to taste
• ½ cup vegetable broth

Instructions:

1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned on all sides. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

2. Add the onion and garlic to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.

3. Stir in the cumin, paprika, cinnamon, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and black pepper. Cook for 1 minute more.

4. Add the sweet potatoes to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened, about 5 minutes.

5. Pour the vegetable broth into the skillet and bring to a simmer. Return the chicken to the skillet.

6. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until the chicken is cooked through and the sweet potatoes are tender, about 15-20 minutes.

7. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley or cilantro if desired.
