INGREDIENTS
1 piece (6 oz) Boneless Skinless Chicken Thigh (170g)
1 small Sweet Potato (150g)
1 tbsp Pecans (7g)
1 tbsp Maple Syrup (20g)
0.5 tbsp Olive Oil (7g)
Salt, Pepper, Garlic Powder (to taste)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Pat the chicken thigh dry and season with salt, pepper, and a light dusting of garlic powder.
In a small bowl, mix the maple syrup with a pinch of salt and pepper. Brush the mixture generously over the chicken thigh.
Place the chicken on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Peel (if desired) and dice the sweet potato into 1/2-inch cubes. Toss them in olive oil, salt, and a pinch of garlic powder.
Spread the sweet potato cubes on another baking sheet in a single layer.
Roast the chicken thigh and sweet potatoes in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and the sweet potatoes are tender with crisp edges.
In the last 5 minutes of roasting, sprinkle the pecans over the sweet potatoes to toast them lightly.
Once done, plate the chicken thigh alongside the roasted sweet potatoes and pecans. Optionally drizzle any remaining maple glaze over the chicken.
