Instructions
Combine all marinade ingredients in a bowl and whisk until blended. Add marinade and chicken to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for 2 to 24 hours.
- Preheat oven to 425.
- Combine sweet potato ingredients in a medium bowl until all the sweet potato is coated with oil. Spread onto one side of a foil lined baking sheet. Place chicken breasts on the other side.
- Place sheet pan in the oven and cook for 20 minutes. Stir sweet potatoes and check chicken temperature. Cook for another 5-10 minutes, checking the chicken temperature until it reaches 165 degrees F.
- See notes for the green bean recipe I cooked on the stove while the sheet pan was in the oven.
- Slice chicken breasts when cool, and divide chicken and vegetables between 4 airtight containers. Store in the fridge for up to 4 days!
