Restaurant-quality at home. The marinade tip in the notes made all the difference — will cook again.

Great balance of protein and veg. I swapped chicken for tofu and it still came out fantastic.
Cook's notes
For a richer chocolate flavor, use dark natural cocoa powder. If you prefer an even tenderer texture, let the oatmeal mixture sit for 10 minutes before baking — this allows the large rolled oats to soften while still retaining a pleasant texture.
Tips & variations
Prep ahead
Roast the sweet potatoes and cook the grains the night before — the bowl comes together in minutes.
Make it vegetarian
Swap the chicken for grilled tofu or crispy chickpeas without losing the protein punch.
Store & reheat
Keeps for 3 days in an airtight container. Add the avocado fresh, just before serving.
Boost the flavour
A squeeze of lemon and a pinch of flaky salt right before eating brightens the whole bowl.
