Prep 15 min · Cook 15 min

In a medium bowl, toss the sweet potato cubes with half the olive oil and half the garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. In a separate bowl or the same one used after the potatoes are removed, toss the chicken pieces with the remaining oil and seasonings.
Place the seasoned sweet potatoes in the air fryer basket in a loose single layer. Air fry at 400°F for 10 minutes, shaking the basket once halfway through.
Add the chicken pieces to the basket with the potatoes, ensuring everything stays in a loose single layer. Work in batches if necessary to avoid crowding. Air fry for 9 to 11 minutes more, shaking once, until the potatoes are browned and tender and the chicken is golden and opaque. Pull the chicken out early if it reaches temperature before the potatoes are finished. Done when opaque in the center, 165°F.
Place the fresh spinach in the bottom of a bowl. Top with the hot air-fried chicken and sweet potatoes. Add the cottage cheese and sliced avocado to the side. Squeeze the lemon juice over the avocado and chicken, then finish with a final pinch of salt and pepper over the avocado and cottage cheese.
