HTML Directions

• 1

  Gather Ingredients
  

  Gather all the necessary ingredients for the recipe.

• 2

  Preheat the Oven
  

  Place a large sheet pan in the oven and preheat to 425°F.

• 3

  Coat Chicken and Sweet Potatoes
  

  Drizzle two-thirds of the oil over the chicken and sweet potatoes, rubbing it in to coat evenly. Season generously with salt and pepper.

• 4

  Roast Chicken and Sweet Potatoes
  

  Carefully remove the hot pan from the oven. Place the chicken, skin-side down, on the pan, adding the sweet potatoes around it. Roast for 20 minutes.

• 5

  Make the Sauce
  

  In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, lemon juice, honey, and cayenne pepper, whisking until well mixed.

• 6

  Prepare Broccoli
  

  Cut broccoli into florets and slice the stalk into 1/2-inch pieces. Drizzle with the remaining oil and rub to coat evenly, seasoning with salt and pepper.

• 7

  Add Sauce and Broccoli
  

  Remove the pan from the oven. Brush the chicken and sweet potatoes with the sauce, flip them over, and brush the other side. Scatter the broccoli around, brush with remaining sauce, and return to the oven.

• 8

  Final Roast
  

  Roast for an additional 15 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F at its thickest point and the vegetables are tender.

Looking for a one-pot dinner? How about a one-pan dinner? Chicken, sweet potatoes, and broccoli all roast together to make a complete meal with minimal cleanup in this sheet pan dinner. Preheating the pan allows the chicken skin to crisp up and adding the broccoli halfway through means everything will be cooked just right. A simple sauce of soy sauce, honey, and lemon add extra flavor and a little moisture to an already flavorful dish.

A large, heavy-duty sheet pan with short sides works best for this dish. You can find them at good kitchen supply stores or order them online. If you have a smaller pan and run out of room, divide the food up into two pans and rotate them when you flip the chicken and potatoes. If you're feeding an extra-hungry group, serve with a grain like quinoa or farro.
