This one-skillet hash is Whole30 compliant and packed with flavor. Crispy sweet potatoes, seasoned chicken, and plenty of vegetables make it hearty and satisfying.

This is the kind of recipe that defines American home cooking at its best — straightforward, satisfying, and built on flavors that everyone loves.

Why This Recipe Works

Cooking the sweet potatoes first until crispy ensures they hold their shape when the other ingredients are added. Using clarified butter (ghee) keeps it Whole30 compliant.

Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs chicken breast, diced
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, diced small
  • 1 bell pepper, diced
  • 1/2 onion, diced
  • 2 tbsp ghee or avocado oil
  • 1 tsp each smoked paprika, garlic powder, and salt

Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat ghee in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sweet potatoes in a single layer and cook 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until crispy.

  2. 2

    Push potatoes to the side. Add chicken, paprika, garlic powder, and salt. Cook 5-6 minutes until browned.

  3. 3

    Add bell pepper and onion. Cook 4 minutes until tender-crisp.

  4. 4

    Toss everything together and cook 1 more minute.

  5. 5

    Top with sliced avocado and a fried egg if desired. Serve with hot sauce.

Tips & Storage

Pro Tips

  • Dice sweet potatoes small (1/2 inch) for faster, crispier cooking.

  • Make it for meal prep—it reheats better than most Whole30 meals.

  • Add kale or spinach in the last minute for extra greens.

Storage

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. For longer storage, freeze individual portions in freezer-safe containers for up to 3 months. Label with the date and recipe name.

Reheating

Reheat in a skillet over medium heat for 5 minutes to restore crispiness.
