Chili marinated chicken with sweet potato

I found this recipe on: http://friskylemon.com/2011/02/28/chili-chicken-with-sweet-potato-hash/ but we modified it a little bit ourselves.


Ingredients
(serves 2-3 people)

2-3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 tsp sea salt
1 tsp chili powder
sprinkle of cayenne pepper
sprinkle of garlic powder
sprinkle of onion powder
sprinkle of turmeric
sprinkle of pepper
2 tbsp olive oil
1 medium to large sweet potato
1 onion
2 cups frozen brussels sprouts
Salt and pepper to taste


Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Mix the sea salt, chili powder, cayenne, garlic powder, onion powder, turmeric and pepper in a bowl. Add the olive oil and mix until combined. Cut the chicken fillets in half in order to make two thin slices of each fillet. Put them in the marinade and mix around a bit to make sure they are completely covered. Put on a tray and bake in the middle of the oven for about 15-20 minutes.
While the chicken is cooking, cut the onion into big chunks. Add this and the brussel sprouts to a pan and fry in some olive oil on medium heat for about 5 minutes. Grate the sweet potato coarsly and add this to the pan. Season with salt and pepper and let cook for another 10 minutes or until the brussel sprouts are cooked through.
We served ours with a 'salad' made of cucumber, tomato and avocado.
