Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. Peel and cut 2 medium sweet potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Slice 2 medium zucchinis into 1/2-inch half-moons. Toss the sweet potatoes and zucchini with 2 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp black pepper, and 1 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes until tender and lightly browned, stirring halfway through.
- Step 2: While vegetables roast, mince 3 garlic cloves. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season 1 lb chicken breast with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper, then add to the skillet. Sauté chicken for 5-7 minutes per side until golden and cooked through, adding minced garlic during the last 2 minutes until fragrant.
- Step 3: Remove chicken from heat and let rest 5 minutes before slicing. Serve sliced chicken alongside the roasted sweet potatoes and zucchini.
