Suya spice brings its signature smoky, peppery crunch to this bowl, but instead of skewers over an open flame, the chicken is grilled or pan-seared in a well-ventilated kitchen until it's fully cooked through and juicy. Roasted sweet potato wedges and a bed of sautéed greens round it out into a full plate.

This bowl is deliberately protein-forward — grilled chicken breast, a peanut-based drizzle, and a hearty vegetable base all work together, which is why it carries a high-protein tag alongside the pregnancy one. It's a good option when you want something that feels a little more composed than a stew but still comes together in one pan.

The peanut drizzle is whisked with warm water rather than left raw, so it's smooth, pourable, and ready to spoon generously over everything.
