Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. Toss 1.5 lbs peeled and cubed sweet potatoes with 2 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper on a large sheet pan, spreading in a single layer.
  2. Step 2: In a small bowl, mix 2 tbsp harissa paste, 4 minced garlic cloves, and 1 tbsp lemon juice. Brush half over 1.5 lbs boneless chicken thighs, then arrange on the sheet pan with the sweet potatoes. Roast for 20 minutes.
  3. Step 3: Add 4 oz torn kale to the sheet pan, drizzle with remaining 1 tbsp olive oil, and toss gently. Roast 10-12 more minutes until chicken reaches 165°F and potatoes are tender. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup chopped cilantro before serving.
