In this mini episode of Kitchen Central we show you how to make this delicious garlic herb chicken and sweet potato sheet pan receipe! Ingredients 1 large, sweet potato, cut into cubes 1/4 cup olive oil, divided 4 cloves garlic, crushed or finely chopped, divided 2 teaspoons dried oregano, divided 2 teaspoons basil, divided 2 teaspoons parsley, divided Salt and freshly ground black pepper 1lb (16oz) boneless skinless chicken breasts, cubed 1 large head of broccoli cut into florets (about 3 cups of florets) 1 red pepper, deseeded and cut into wedges 1 medium red onion, cut into wedges Instructions Preheat oven to 400°F ( 200°C). Line a large, rimmed baking sheet / tray with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Arrange sweet potatoes on the tray; drizzle with 1 tablespoon of oil (or enough to evenly coat), 1 crushed garlic clove, 1/2 teaspoon each of oregano, basil and parsley. Toss well to coat completely. Season with salt and pepper and spread into an even layer. Cover with foil and roast in hot oven for 10 minutes, while preparing the remaining vegetables. The sweet potatoes will just begin to soften at this time (they will still be fairly hard on the inside, but soft on the outside). Remove from the oven and arrange the chicken, broccoli, peppers, and onion around the sweet potatoes. Drizzle with remaining oil; add the garlic and herbs. Toss everything together to completely coat in the oil. Season with extra salt and pepper to taste. Return to the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, turning chicken and other ingredients once while cooking, until the chicken is cooked through to 165 degrees F in the middle, and the other vegetables are cooked through. Serve immediately OR allow to cool to room temperature, divide into 4 containers and you have meals ready for the week!
