Notes
Store bowls in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Chicken can be frozen separately for longer storage. Microwave in 60-second intervals until hot, or reheat vegetables in a skillet or toaster oven for crispiness. To save time, make sauce up to 5 days ahead and cook chicken and roast veggies the night before. Portion bowls while ingredients are still warm.
