Crispy Roasted Yams with Garlic-Herb Chicken and Roasted Asparagus
Delight in a well-balanced plate featuring tender garlic-herb chicken paired with crispy roasted yams and lightly charred asparagus. The natural sweetness of yams complements the savory, juicy chicken, while the asparagus adds a vibrant crunch, making this dish both satisfying and nutritionally balanced.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 medium Yam
6 spears Asparagus
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 Garlic Clove
1 tbsp Mixed Fresh Herbs (thyme, rosemary)
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel and cube the yam into 1-inch pieces. Toss the cubes with half of the olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Place the yam cubes on one side of the baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes until crispy on the outside and tender inside, tossing halfway.
While the yams roast, pat the chicken breast dry. In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic, mixed fresh herbs, a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Rub the garlic-herb mixture evenly over the chicken breast.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 2 minutes per side until golden brown.
Transfer the chicken to the oven (you can place it on a separate tray or alongside the yams if space permits) and roast for an additional 10-12 minutes until cooked through.
Trim the asparagus and toss with a small amount of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Arrange on a baking tray and roast in the oven for 10 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
Plate the roasted yams, garlic-herb chicken, and asparagus together. Serve warm and enjoy.
