Yogurt Marinated Chicken with Potatoes

Lunch this week is this tasty combination of chicken, sweet potatoes and red potatoes.  I marinated the chicken overnight in yogurt with spices and boiled the potatoes until tender.  I cooked everything together in one pain and divided into tupperware.  This is super easy and super tasty!  If you try it, let me know how it goes!

Yogurt Marinated Chicken and Potatoes
1 pound chicken breast, chopped into bite sized pieces
1 cup plain greek yogurt
2 tbsp Emeril's Spice Blend
1 tbsp olive oil
1 1/2 sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped into bite sized pieces
6 small red potatoes, chopped into bite sized pieces
Salt and Pepper

Put the chicken in a bowl and sprinkle the spice blend over, making sure every bite will have some spice.  Spoon the yogurt over the chicken and mix well.  Cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge overnight to marinate.

The next day....
Put the potatoes into a pot and cover with water and sprinkle with salt.  Bring to a boil and cook until fork tender and drain.

Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large nonstick pan.  Add the chicken, discarding any excess marinade and cook for about 10 minutes.  Add the potatoes and stir everything together to combine.  Double check the temperature of the chicken (165F) and then divide into 5 servings for lunch for the week!  


Enjoy!
