How to make it
1
• Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce.
• Slice sweet potatoes into 1⁄4-inch-thick rounds. Remove and discard any large stems from kale; chop into bite-size pieces. Halve, peel, and finely dice half the shallot (whole for 4 servings). Place peppercorns in a zip-close bag and crush with a heavy-bottomed pan or rolling pin.
2
• In a large bowl, toss sweet potatoes with a large drizzle of oil, half the garlic powder (you’ll use the rest later), a couple big pinches of salt, and pepper.
• Arrange on a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast on the top rack until browned and cooked through, 20-25 minutes.
3
• While sweet potatoes roast, place kale in bowl used for sweet potatoes and lightly season with salt. Using your hands, massage kale (similar to how you would knead dough) until leaves are tender, 1 minute. (TIP: To make kale even more tender, add a drizzle of olive oil along with the salt before massaging.) Set aside.
4
• Pat chicken dry with paper towels and season all over with remaining garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, 3-5 minutes per side. TIP: If chicken begins to brown too quickly, reduce heat to medium and cover after chicken is flipped.
• Transfer chicken to a cutting board and tent with foil. Turn off heat; rinse and wipe out pan.
5
• Heat a drizzle of oil in same pan over medium heat. Add minced shallot; cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, 2-3 minutes.
• Add 1⁄4 cup water(1⁄2 cup for 4 servings), demi-glace, and 1⁄2 tsp crushed peppercorns (1 tsp for 4) and bring to a simmer; cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, 1-3 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Stir in crème fraîche, half the dressing (you’ll use the rest in the next step), and 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4) until butter is melted. Taste and season with salt.
6
• Halve, core, and thinly slice apple.
• To bowl with kale, add apple, cranberries, sunflower seeds, half the Parmesan, and remaining dressing to taste; toss to coat. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
7
• Thinly slice chicken crosswise.
• Divide chicken, sweet potatoes, and salad between plates. Spoon sauce over chicken. Sprinkle remaining Parmesan over salad and serve.
Poultry is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 165°.

Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I tracked my meal delivery spending through three summers. The pattern’s embarrassing: June hits, I promise myself I’ll meal prep and eat clean, then by July I’m ordering Chipotle at 9 PM because it’s 95 degrees and I can’t face turning on the stove. August? Full...
Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I went vegan for 90 days while working 60-hour weeks. Not because I’m some wellness influencer with a meal prep Sunday ritual. because I wanted to see if it was actually possible without turning into the person who brings sad lettuce to every work lunch. The...
Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I fed a family of six for three months using nothing but meal delivery services. My Costco membership gathered dust. My freezer became a staging area for Blue Apron boxes instead of bulk chicken thighs. The math shocked me. A family of six ordering Chipotle twice...
Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I spent last summer testing every meal delivery service that promised to keep me eating clean while Nashville hit 95 degrees by 10 AM. The goal: figure out which services actually deliver fresh food that doesn’t wilt in transit, and which ones are just marketing “summer...
Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I’ve cooked through a lot of meal kits trying to impress dates. Some worked. Some. did not. The difference between a fun couples’ cooking night and a kitchen disaster comes down to three things: timing (nobody wants to be chopping onions at 9 PM), difficulty (if...
Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I spent three months ordering from every meal delivery service that claims to be “senior-friendly.” Some of them actually are. Most just slapped a stock photo of a smiling grandparent on their homepage and called it a day. Here’s what actually matters if you’re over 65...
Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I spent three months feeding my nephew dinner from meal delivery services. He’s eight, picky as hell, and thinks vegetables are a personal attack. By week two, I had strong opinions. Here’s what I learned: most meal kits aren’t actually designed for kids. They’re designed for...
Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I’ve spent more money on date night meal delivery than I care to admit. Not because I’m some kind of romantic. because I got tired of the same three restaurants and the “what do you want to eat” standoff that kills the vibe before you even...
Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I tracked my mom’s Uber Eats spending for a month. $387. That number made me physically uncomfortable. She’s not ordering fancy stuff. just dinner because she’s exhausted after work and the idea of chopping vegetables sounds like a personal attack. The delivery apps know this. They...
Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I spent $420 on a week of Sakara meals. That’s not a typo. $420 for five days of plant-based food delivered to my door in Brooklyn. The box showed up looking like it belonged in a Goop photo shoot, packed in compostable materials with little cards...
