Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. Toss 2 peeled and cubed sweet potatoes with 1 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp sea salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper on a baking sheet. Roast for 25-30 minutes until tender and lightly caramelized.
  2. Step 2: While sweet potatoes roast, heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season 6 chicken thighs with 1/2 tsp sea salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Place skin-side down in the skillet and cook for 7-8 minutes until skin is golden and crispy.
  3. Step 3: Flip chicken thighs and add 4 minced garlic cloves and 1 tbsp chopped rosemary around the pan. Cook for another 6-7 minutes until internal temperature reaches 165°F and garlic is fragrant but not burnt.
  4. Step 4: Serve the sautéed chicken thighs alongside the roasted sweet potatoes.
