Ingredients
- Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
- Sweet potatoes
- Broccoli florets
- Bell peppers (red, yellow, orange)
- Red onion
- Pure maple syrup
- Dijon mustard
- Olive oil
- Garlic (minced)
- Apple cider vinegar or lemon juice
- Salt
- Black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Peel and cube the sweet potatoes into about 1-inch pieces. Chop the broccoli into bite-sized florets, slice the bell peppers into strips, and thinly slice the red onion.
- Cut the boneless, skinless chicken into 1-inch cubes.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the pure maple syrup, Dijon mustard, olive oil, apple cider vinegar (or lemon juice), minced garlic, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
- Place the cubed sweet potatoes on the prepared baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Roast for about 10-15 minutes.
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven, add the cubed chicken, broccoli florets, bell pepper strips, and red onion slices. Pour the majority of the maple Dijon sauce over everything and toss to coat.
- Spread everything out into a single layer and return to the oven. Roast for another 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.
- Divide the chicken, sweet potatoes, and roasted veggies among serving bowls and drizzle with the reserved maple Dijon sauce.
