Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel and dice the sweet potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Toss them with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder. Spread evenly on the prepared baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway, until tender and lightly caramelized.
While the sweet potatoes are roasting, season the chicken breasts with 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, and a pinch of garlic powder.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165Β°F (74Β°C). Remove the chicken to a plate and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing into thin strips.
Prepare the dressing by whisking together the balsamic vinegar, remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.
In a large bowl, massage the kale with a small drizzle of the dressing and a pinch of salt to soften it slightly.
Assemble the bowl by dividing the massaged kale between two serving bowls. Top with the roasted sweet potatoes, sliced grilled chicken, shredded apple, and toasted walnuts.
Drizzle the dressing evenly over both bowls and toss lightly to combine. Serve immediately and enjoy!
