BBQ Chicken Meal Prep Bowls are a quick, one pan meal for an easy dinner. Make them ahead of time for weekly meal prep. Filled with BBQ chicken, butternut squash, broccoli and corn on the cob.
BBQ chicken meal prep bowls are sooo easy and perfect for a busy week night meal. Bake everything on one pan and dinner is served! It’s my version of fast food.
Some nights call for a no brainer dinner like these Jerk Chicken Meal Prep Bowls. This bbq chicken meal prep is exactly that. A few ingredients baked in the oven and dinner is done. Can I get a high five?!
For this meal I use a pack of chicken tenderloins, my favorite BBQ sauce, butternut squash, broccoli and some corn on the cob. Toss them all with a little olive oil, garlic powder, salt and pepper and bake. I recommend to bake the squash a few minutes before you add the rest of the ingredients in order for them to soften.
QUICK TIPS
- I love using THESE containers for meal prep. They stay clear and are really durable.
- To reheat, place the chicken and vegetables on a sheet pan and bake for 10 minutes.
- If you don’t have corn on the cob, use can substitute frozen corn.
- Diced sweet potatoes are a great alternative to butternut squash.
- For faster prep, buy pre chopped broccoli and squash.
