Crispy Lemon-Herb Chicken with Roasted Sweet Potatoes
Enjoy this crisp and tangy chicken dish paired with roasted sweet potatoes. The lemon and fresh herbs brighten the savory chicken, while the sweet potatoes provide a naturally sweet, satisfying side that's perfect for a balanced meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 medium Sweet Potato
1.5 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/2 Lemon
1 tbsp Mixed Herbs
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 425°F.
Peel and cut the sweet potato into 1-inch cubes. Toss with half of the olive oil, a pinch of salt, pepper, and a sprinkle of mixed herbs. Spread them on a baking sheet.
Place the sweet potatoes in the oven and roast for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until tender and lightly caramelized.
Meanwhile, pound the chicken breast slightly for even cooking. In a bowl, combine the remaining olive oil, juice and zest from the half lemon, the rest of the mixed herbs, salt, and pepper.
Coat the chicken breast in the lemon-herb mixture. Let it marinate for 10 minutes.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 2-3 minutes per side until golden.
Transfer the chicken to the oven (if needed, alongside the sweet potatoes) and bake for an additional 10 minutes or until fully cooked and crispy on the edges.
Plate the crispy lemon-herb chicken with a generous serving of roasted sweet potatoes and serve warm.
