Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss diced sweet potatoes with 1 tbsp olive oil, 1/4 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp rosemary. Spread on a parchment-lined baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes until edges are golden and tender.
  2. Step 2: Season chicken thighs with remaining 1/2 tsp rosemary, 1/4 tsp salt, and a pinch of black pepper. Heat remaining 1 tbsp olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat until smoking.
  3. Step 3: Add chicken and sear for 4 minutes per side until deeply browned and crusty, then transfer skillet to oven. Bake for 12 minutes until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  4. Step 4: Plate chicken with roasted sweet potatoes, drizzling pan juices over top. Serve immediately while chicken is juicy and sweet potatoes are caramelized.
