Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (thinly-sliced)
- kosher salt (to taste)
- ground black pepper (to taste)
- 1 medium sweet potato (peeled and chopped into cubes)
- 1 pound brussels sprouts (outer leaves removed, then halved)
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 3 tablespoons dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 cloves garlic (grated)
- 2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary (or ½ teaspoon dried)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425℉.
- Season the chicken breasts well with salt and pepper.
- Combine olive oil, dijon mustard, maple syrup, balsamic vinegar, garlic, rosemary, salt, and pepper in a glass jar. Secure the lid and shake well.
- In a large bowl, mix sweet potatoes and chicken. Pour one third of the maple dijon mixture over them and toss to coat. Spread the mixture on a large sheet pan and bake for 10 minutes.
- While that bakes, add Brussels sprouts to the same bowl and toss with another third of the maple dijon mixture to coat.
- After 10 minutes, add Brussels sprouts to the sheet pan with chicken and sweet potatoes. Bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until browned and crispy.
- Before serving, drizzle the remaining maple dijon mixture over the chicken, sweet potatoes, and Brussels sprouts.
Notes
For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in the maple dijon mixture for a few hours before cooking.
Feel free to substitute other seasonal vegetables like carrots or parsnips for a variation.
Ensure the chicken is thinly sliced for even cooking.
