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 generously 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 about a third of the maple dijon mixture over them, and toss to coat. Spread on a large sheet pan and bake for 10 minutes.
- Add Brussels sprouts to the same bowl and coat with the remaining maple dijon mixture, tossing to ensure even coverage.
- After 10 minutes, add the Brussels sprouts to the sheet pan with chicken and sweet potatoes. Bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, until sprouts are crispy and browned.
- Drizzle the remaining maple dijon mixture over the dish before serving.
Notes
Make sure to chop the sweet potatoes into uniform pieces for even cooking.
Feel free to swap in your favorite vegetables for the Brussels sprouts, like carrots or asparagus.
For leftovers, store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
