Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss 2 peeled and cubed sweet potatoes (1/2-inch pieces) with 1 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper on a baking sheet. Roast for 15 minutes.
- Step 2: While sweet potatoes roast, season 4 chicken thighs (bone-in, skin-on) with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper. In a small bowl, mix 3 minced garlic cloves, 1 tbsp chopped rosemary, 1 tsp chopped thyme, and 1 tbsp olive oil. Rub mixture over chicken thighs.
- Step 3: After 15 minutes, add 1.5 cups broccoli florets to the baking sheet with the sweet potatoes. Place chicken thighs on top of the vegetables. Drizzle with remaining 1 tbsp olive oil. Roast for 25-30 minutes until chicken is golden and cooked through (internal temperature 165°F), and vegetables are tender.
