Instructions
- Step 1: Dice sweet potato into 1/2-inch cubes. Toss with 1/2 tsp avocado oil, 1/4 tsp black pepper, and salt to taste. Spread on a baking sheet and roast at 425°F (220°C) for 20 minutes until edges are crispy.
- Step 2: Season chicken thighs with remaining 1/4 tsp black pepper. Heat 1/2 tsp avocado oil in a skillet over medium-high heat, then cook chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until golden brown and internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- Step 3: While chicken cooks, steam broccoli florets for 5 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp. Serve chicken over roasted sweet potatoes with steamed broccoli, drizzling with 1 tbsp coconut aminos.
