Sizzling Garlic Herb Chicken with Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Broccoli
This one-pan chicken and veggie dinner is a weeknight lifesaver. The chicken is juicy and flavorful, the sweet potatoes are caramelized and tender, and the broccoli is perfectly roasted. Best of all, it's all cooked in one pan, so cleanup is a breeze.
I've always been a fan of one-pan meals. They're easy to make, clean up is a breeze, and they're a great way to get a complete meal on the table quickly. This chicken and veggie dinner is one of my favorites. It's simple to make, but it's packed with flavor. The chicken is juicy and flavorful, the sweet potatoes are caramelized and tender, and the broccoli is perfectly roasted. I like to use a mix of chicken breasts and thighs for this recipe. The breasts cook more quickly, while the thighs add extra flavor and juiciness. You can also use any vegetables you like. I like to use a mix of sweet potatoes, broccoli, and carrots, but you could also use zucchini, bell peppers, or any other vegetables you have on hand.

Why It Works
  • The chicken is marinated in a flavorful blend of olive oil, garlic powder, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper. This helps to keep the chicken moist and juicy during cooking.
  • The chicken and vegetables are roasted together on a single sheet pan. This helps to create a flavorful and caramelized crust on the chicken and vegetables.
  • The chicken and vegetables are cooked at a high temperature. This helps to quickly cook the chicken and vegetables, while still keeping them tender and juicy.
