Honey Garlic Chicken & Roasted Sweet Potatoes
Ingredients
4 chicken breasts
3 medium sweet potatoes (sliced into rounds)
3 tbsp olive oil (divided)
3 garlic cloves (minced)
1/4 cup honey
2 tbsp soy sauce
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1/2 tsp dried thyme
Fresh thyme (for garnish)
Salt and pepper (to taste)
Directions
Preheat the oven: Set oven to 400°F (200°C).
Roast the sweet potatoes: Toss sweet potato slices with 1 tbsp olive oil, salt, and pepper. Arrange on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and tender.
Prepare the chicken: Season chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and dried thyme. Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sear chicken for 4-5 minutes per side until golden. Remove and set aside.
Make the sauce: In the same skillet, add garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Stir in honey, soy sauce, and Dijon mustard. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.
Combine and cook: Return chicken to the skillet and spoon the sauce over each piece. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 5-7 minutes until the chicken is cooked through (internal temp of 165°F/74°C).
Serve: Plate the chicken with the roasted sweet potatoes. Drizzle remaining sauce over the dish and garnish with fresh thyme.
