Instructions

1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. In a large bowl, toss 1.5 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs, 2 cups cubed sweet potatoes, 1 large sliced red bell pepper, and 1 medium cut red onion with 3 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp smoked paprika, 1 tsp ground cumin, 1/2 tsp ground coriander, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper until evenly coated.
2. Step 2: Arrange the chicken and vegetables in a single layer on a rimmed sheet pan. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, turning the vegetables halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender with caramelized edges.
3. Step 3: Remove the sheet pan from oven. Drizzle 1 tbsp fresh lime juice over the chicken and vegetables, then sprinkle 2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro before serving for a bright, fresh finish.
