Ingredients

Scale

Chicken and Sweet Potatoes

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes (about 1 pound), diced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Honey BBQ Glaze

  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup BBQ sauce (smoky variety recommended)

Optional Garnish

  • Fresh herbs (such as parsley or cilantro)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for roasting the chicken and sweet potatoes.
  2. Prepare Chicken and Sweet Potatoes: In a large bowl, toss the chicken breasts and diced sweet potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  3. Make the Honey BBQ Glaze: In a separate bowl, whisk together the honey and smoky BBQ sauce until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  4. Arrange in Baking Dish: Place the chicken breasts on one side of a large baking dish and the diced sweet potatoes on the other side to allow even cooking.
  5. Glaze the Chicken: Generously brush the honey BBQ glaze over the top of each chicken breast, ensuring they are well coated for maximum flavor.
  6. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through, golden brown, and caramelized, and the sweet potatoes are tender.
  7. Garnish and Serve: Optionally garnish with freshly chopped herbs before serving for an added burst of freshness and color.

Notes

  • Ensure chicken breasts are of even thickness or pound slightly for uniform cooking.
  • You can substitute BBQ sauce with your favorite brand or flavor variants.
  • Check sweet potatoes for tenderness by piercing with a fork before serving.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • For extra crispiness, broil for 1-2 minutes at the end but watch carefully to avoid burning.
