Sweet and Spicy Tempeh Bowls are the perfect make-ahead vegetarian meal prep, with a medley of colors, textures, and bold flavors.&nbsp;

Sweet and Spicy Tempeh Bowls

tempeh (3.19)

water (0.00)

garlic powder (0.05)

tsp smoked paprika (0.05)

cayenne pepper (0.05)

salt (0.02)

Tbsp brown sugar (0.08)

olive oil (0.16)

cornmeal (0.24)

butter

15 ounces. can black beans, rinsed (0.49)

shredded cheddar (0.44)

avocado, sliced (0.49)

green onions, sliced (0.20)

Tbsp ranch dressing (0.31)

Cut the block of tempeh into 32 thin triangles. For the block I used, I first cut it into 8 equal-sized squares, then cut each square into two triangles, then cut the thickness of each triangle in half to make the pieces thinner. Add the tempeh triangles to a large non-stick skillet.

Make the sweet and spicy marinade by combining the water, garlic powder, smoked paprika, cayenne, salt, brown sugar, and olive oil. Pour this mixture over the tempeh in the skillet. Turn the skillet on to medium-high and simmer the tempeh, stirring occasionally, until the liquid evaporates and the tempeh begins to brown just slightly (about 10 minutes). Remove the tempeh from the heat.

To make the polenta, combine the cornmeal, salt, and water in a medium sauce pot. Place the pot over medium-high heat and bring it up to a boil while whisking. Once it reaches a boil, turn the heat down to medium-low and continue to simmer 2-3 minutes more, or until the polenta has thickened. Remove the polenta from the heat and stir in the butter.

To build the bowls, start with 1 cup of the polenta, add 1/4 of the sweet and spicy tempeh triangles, 1/4 of the rinsed black beans, a pinch or two of shredded cheddar (about 1/2 oz.), 1/4 of the avocado, a sprinkle of green onions, and a light drizzle of ranch. Serve immediately, or refrigerate and reheat later.

Thank you! I didn’t know how to bake juicy chicken breast until your recipe.

My new go-to favorite baked chicken breast recipe! Delicious and so easy to make.

This chicken is so flavorful and juicy. My new go to recipe for baked chicken! My husband has refused to eat baked chicken for years, but he inhaled this dish. Thank you!

Really good!  Not spicey, but lots of flavour.  Easy and fast!  will make again.

Best, easiest and quickest way to make oven baked chicken.  It’s not dried out at all and has a lot of flavour.  I have made this recipe three times already, my now go to quick week night recipe.  Thank you

This baked chicken recipe is what I have been looking for for years! It is the most juicy, moist, flavorful baked chicken I've had. It tastes great reheated which makes it absolutely perfect for meal prepping! This is now a staple in our home. Can't go wrong with this super easy recipe.

This is the best chicken breast recipe ever. Easy, delicious and juicy! We ❤️ it!  It's baking right now...

Thank you Olena,
I've been looking for a quick healthy recipe that's delicious and the kids love.  Finally found it!

Spice was tasty, but chicken was dry. Will try again, but with less time in the oven.

My new favorite way to make chicken! It’s so juicy and the flavor is amazing.

Delicious! I used Penzey's smoked paprika.

Easy to prep and the whole family enjoyed. Thanks for helping keep life simple but good!

Thank you for the recipe, my husband and I absolutely loved it. It was so easy to prep and I’ve never baked such a tender and juicy chicken before! It’s definitely my favorite healthy chicken dish. I’m looking forward to trying more of your recipes very soon.

Hi, if I use chicken thighs instead, so I use the same oven temperature, time and cover the chicken?
Thanks

I forgot to ask, the juice that is left after cooking the chicken is soooo good, if I wanted more of it to pour on top, would I add more oil?? It was so delicious I wish I had more.

So much flavor with almost no effort a only a few ingredients. Will be become a regular meal in our house.

My whole family of picky eaters loved this recipe. It was easy and time friendly.

I love love this simple and delicious baked chicken recipe. I love smoked paprika. 
And left over chicken is great cut up and put in a fresh green salad. I give it a five star rating. Thank you!

Love this recipe... I make it weekly for food prep for my lunches!

Love this recipe! Chicken is tender and juicy every time. I cook it often in the mornings and my children take fresh chicken sandwiches to school instead of deli meat!!

I have made this several times. My family love it.  I am 79 years old and love learning new tricks from young women like you.  
Love your web site and have tried many of your recipes.  Thanks for teaching us old dogs new tricks.

68 yrs old here and I agree. So glad to find Olga's site. Just made my first recipe and learned a lot.

I only added more spices and the juice left with the cooked chicken was fantastic. Possibly it was the chicken breasts themselves but as tasty as they were, they were still tough. I used Springer Farms brand skinless &amp; boneless breasts: no GMO, antibiotics etc. I hate hard to chew chicken. Can you make a recommendation? Love your site!

Where has this blog been my whole life? I wish I could cook everything at once but that isn’t a sound idea. Me and my hubby have been trying to eat healthy. What brought me to your blog was your salad recipes and here I am 30 pages in and can’t stop except to comment. Thank you for your dedication and hard work! You have a new follower.

This is my go-to baked chicken breast recipe when I don’t have time to thaw them. The chicken always turns out juicy and seasoned deliciously!  Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe.

I made juicy chicken and it was great.  Gone in no time.  I also made cucumber tomato salad to go with it.  That also was excellent. Would go good with anything you put with it.  Made toco shrimp.  Could not stop eating it.  The sauce was very creamy.  Could not tell it was not full of fat.

I’ve made this recipe three times with rice. The family loves it, the chicken has flavor and is not dry due to the seasons used. It a quick meal on busy week days.

Was very moist and had excellent flavor.  Had no left overs

Awesome recipe!!! My little one love it!!! He ate more then I did it's fore sure!

Perfect and delicious juicy chicken! Thanks!! ?

Olena, in the Notes you said you used 3 huge breasts, but in actual recipe it's 2. So does the amount of seasoning change for the 3 breasts? Thanks!

Thanks, Olena! Sorry for being inattentive while reading the recipe :)...

Wonderful way to prepare chicken! The coating adhered and the flavorful and juicy chicken was delicious! The directions were excellent- the tender chicken carved so easily.  Loved it!

Who thought chicken could be so moist!  I make these up Sunday night and toss in my salad at lunch. Another staple recipe for me

My boyfriend absolutely despises chicken and I’m far from a fan of chicken breast. But we just started a diet together and decided we need to be more open minded. This is the first chicken breast recipe and to put it simple... this recipe is a keeper! We both have a newfound love for chicken! This recipe is simple and easy to put together and it’s beyond delicious! Thank you so much for sharing it!

Perfect balance of seasoning and bake time producing tender, juicy chicken. Next batch I will try substituting Garam Masala -- a favorite spice blend of my daughter.

Thank you so so much for this great recipe, Olena! It tastes so good, it changed the way I see chicken breast (I used to relate it to boring and dry diet recipes). I added some onions to the baking dish - they got all caramelized and tasted great with the chicken juices.

This was absolutely delicious ?.  Thank you for sharing this recipe!!

So so juicy! Tastes perfect. Will definitely be a staple

This was deliciousssss!!! This was my first time baking chicken breast and no one got salmonella! But all jokes aside best recipe for a healthy lifestyle :) thank you so much for sharing this

Baking chicken has always been my least favorite way to prepare it because it comes out so dry. Your advice of higher temp (I always cooked @ 350) for shorter time and letting it rest produced the juiciest chicken I’ve ever made! My dad said “wow!” and my kids cleared their plates. Thank you for my new menu staple!

i was looking for a way to bake chicken breasts without a lot of calories.  I tried your recipe.  It was delicious!  So juicy.  We loved it!  I will certainly make it again.

I finally baked chicken that was juicy. Thank you so much!!!

I've made this twice this week! One of my new go-to recipes for meal prep, me and my kids all love it.

I've made this recipe several times and absolutely love it! The chicken always comes out moist and tender, and is perfect eaten alone or added to other recipes.

I will ALWAYS make chicken this way now, and will try many different combos of seasoning.  The biggest take away from this recipe is the well made point of covering with aluminum foil and resting for 10 to even 15 minutes...sooooo moist and juicy!!!!  The leftovers will be fantastic for my go to lunch salads.  I ended up goofing and somehow used double the amount of spice needed 
(thinking I had twice as much chicken, but did have about 2 lbs! ) -  so to fix the too much seasoning, I gave each piece a good rub and rinse under fairly warm water.  Perfect save for my error.  Steamed fresh carrots with buttered rice.  Fabulous!!!

I made this tonight for my family and the missionaries. This is the absolute best chicken I have ever made! Thank you so much for sharing your recipe! It’s simply amazing.

This is by far the best chicken recipe I’ve ever tried. I’ve made it every Sunday for the past two weeks as part of my meal prep for the week. The only thing I do differently is add a package of Italian salad dressing mix for additional flavor. Very impressed! Thank you!

Unbelievably moist and delicious. I have made this recipe several times, shared it with others, and it never fails to come out perfectly!

Made this chicken recipe and will definitely make again. It was quick and easy and the chicken was tender and juicy.  This recipe is a keeper.

I loved this tender juicy chicken. Easy and quick.

My go to chicken breast recipe. I use it all the time for lunch prepping for the week!

Hi Olena,   l watched your  video on baked chicken. It looks so yummy. I went out to my grocery store and looked for smoked paprika ... hubbie said get paprika. I continued to look a d finally found it. Yeah! Making this chicken breast tonight. So very grateful. ~Joyce

Thank you for introducing me to a new paprika. My family loved this recipe.

My go to recipe for baked chicken. Always turns out delicious!

Yummy! I added  extra roasted garlic (cause we ❤ garlic!). Thanks for the covering the chicken after bake tip!

I am making it yet again but using breast with bone. I am excited to see how they turn out. Yum !

Super good!! My young kids loved it! THank you!

Was a nice change from plain baked chicken. My husband’s tastebuds are still off-kilter with seasonings, from the chemo and radiation prior to his stem cell transplant. A bit too much garlic for him, but he was able to eat it. I’m glad I Googled and chose your recipe to try. Thanks for posting it!

Delicious! Used Bell &amp; Evans bone-in breasts cooked to 150 degrees &amp; 1t minced garlic per breast with generous amounts of the seasonings. As a side, cut thick slices of green &amp; yellow squash, tossed with EVOO &amp; same seasonings plus caraway seeds. Covered those, cooked in oven alongside chicken dish. After chicken rested, tossed veggies in chicken drippings &amp; served together. Quick, healthy, &amp; scrumptious.

WOW....we just had the most delicious dinner.  I followed your 'Baked Chicken Breast' recipe exactly.... and it could have won a prize for being moist, awesome presentation, and very flavourful!

I prepared a salad and steamed some baby carrots and my husband followed your recipe for baked potatoes in the Instant Pot. Another great recipe. It was a Sunday Dinner on a Thursday.

Thank you Olena. I'm in my 70's and done alot of cooking over the years, and I would never have cooked chicken breasts without a cover and at 450 degrees.  For sure I'd have had a cover and had the oven at 325 degrees. It goes to show that with a little help one can learn at any age.

I love this recipe comes out perfect every time

Thank you! I’ve been cooking for decades and needed a refreshing idea for simple baked chicken. This recipe and your technique tips were outstanding! I’ll be making this part of my go-to dinner rotation.

Hello from Australia!  I made this for lunch today for friends and it was absolutely delicious. I had been going to use ordinary paprik,a but your note to get the smoked paprika "just buy it!" persuaded me to get some last minute - I was very glad I did as the taste was worth it. As someone else said in the comments, I too would normally never have cooked it at such a high temperature and uncovered, but I will definitely cook chicken breast like this again :)

Sounds so good I’m definitely going to try this I’m trying to loose weight and I’m a very picky eater

Was as delicious as it was described. I am not a meat eater, but cook for others &amp; this was well received!!

Love Love Love this recipe!  I make it at least once a week.  We have as main course, as is, the first night.  Then I freeze some and make the rest in quesadillas on 2nd night!  Thank you!

Absolutely great recipe, will become a family standard now. Easy, yummy, cheap... can I ask for more?

Moist. Tender. Flavorful. Delicious. OMG. I never rate a recipe. Never. Ever. This was amazing and oh so simple! From past epic fails, I vowed to never bake boneless skinless chicken breasts again. I have allocated skin/boneless breasts to chicken salads. BUT since I happen to have ALL the ingredients on hand, I decided it was a "sign" and braved baking chicken breasts again. This is DEFINITELY A KEEPER !!! Thank you!

I might have missed it but what's the calorie content of this chicken? It's delicious, by the way, the spices are perfect, this is my meal prep chicken recipe from now on

Juicy!  Tasted great. ,,, and easy!

A question … approximately how much black pepper do you use? I'm a new cook, and am never sure if have it right. Thanks

I loved this combo of spices for baked chicken.  The info provided me with a no-fail chicken breast. I've made the chicken twice in a two week time.  Once the chicken breasts stood on its own, the second time as a shredded version in chicken tamales.  The family loved it and clearly I will be using it over and over!  Thanks!

I couldn't believe you could cook chicken at 450 degrees and have it turn out moist, but this recipe is great! It comes out so moist and good!

I would give this recipe 100 stars if I could! My 10 year old daughter just made it, pretty much by herself and it's amazing! Husband was speechless how good it tasted. Thank you :)

Simple, easy to follow and tastes wonderful!

The chicken is so nice, tasty and easy to do. Thanks Olena

I don’t cook! Looked up healthy chicken breast recipe and this was the first one I looked at an tried. AMAZING!!! I had never cooked chicken before in my life!! Seriously so easy an sooo GOOD!

Really enjoyed it, the chicken was really juicy not dry and boring

Thank you, Ms. Osipov, for this helpful recipe. I tend to end up with dry chicken when I cook it in the oven, which is a direct result of frequently cooking "off the cuff" as opposed to following recipes every time. I like simple food as well: it's for this reason that I would rarely go out to eat for dinner. Perfectly good pieces of meat, poultry, fish, and vegetables often get over-seasoned or over-salted in restaurants at $25+ per plate. I'd rather pay for a good cut and cook it at home!

OMGosh, that's great! I labeled it Crack Chicken. Thank you very much!

This is my go-to easy, healthy and absolutely delicious chicken recipe. I love that I can cook frozen chicken breast using this recipe and they come out perfectly. Thank you for sharing this recipe.

The best baked chicken breast recipe. 
No fail,  always tender and delish!
Way to nail this Olena!

Great basic chicken recipe. I bake a bunch of it, cut it up, and freeze for later meals.

Made it! Thank you so much and was easy to do and good for meal prep :)

The best healthy, fast, simple way to bake chicken breasts!  I used this a month ago but then didn't 
recall where the recipe was from.  Have been searching and being disappointed to not have 
written down.  I am 65 and have made chicken breasts usually in the broiler, or if the weather 
allow, outside in a smoker using mesquite or hickory wood pieces added to charcoal.  I will 
not use light fluid but instead use one of those chimney starters and the flavor is amazing. 
However when unable to cook outdoors, the baked chicken recipe you shared is wonderful.  
I love that you stress healthy and simple!!!!  Thank you so much

For some reason my chicken took an extra 10 minutes to reach 150. Then it didn’t reach 165 after covering so I had to throw it back in for a couple more minutes.
