Description

A comforting dish combining tender chicken and sweet potatoes, perfect for weeknight dinners or cozy weekend meals.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 pieces chicken breasts (boneless and skinless)
  • 2 large sweet potatoes (peeled and cubed)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt (to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper (to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 cup broccoli florets (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Toss the cubed sweet potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and thyme until evenly coated.
  3. Spread the sweet potatoes on a baking sheet in a single layer and place the seasoned chicken breasts alongside.
  4. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the sweet potatoes are tender. If using broccoli, add it during the last 10 minutes of baking.
  5. Let rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your meal!

Notes

Experiment with spices and allow the chicken to rest for juiciness. This dish can also be served with a salad or yogurt sauce.
