Easy Sheet Pan Sweet & Savory Chicken, Broccoli & Sweet Potato
(SIBO Friendly, low fodmap, gluten free)
Last week, I needed a quick and easy dinner! I literally looked in my fridge and pulled this sheet pan dinner together with less than 8 ingredients! Think superfast, healthy and EASY! Both of my boys loved and devoured.
This one-pan chicken dinner requires only eight ingredients, making it perfect for busy weeknights. Meaty chicken breasts (or you could also use chicken thighs) roast on top of scallions and sweet potatoes until the chicken is golden and juicy and the scallions are tender and oh so sweet. Despite the short ingredient list, this dish delivers deep flavor and varying textures: The sweet potatoes on the bottom soak up the tasty pan juices, while the ones on top turn crispy. Any extra pan drippings get beautifully harmonized with maple syrup and thyme for a quick and satisfying sauce.
