Lemon Herb Chicken with Tender Sautéed Chard and Roasted Sweet Potatoes
Enjoy a vibrant dish bursting with fresh lemon and aromatic herbs.

INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 medium Sweet Potato
1 cup chopped Swiss Chard
1 tbsp Olive Oil (divided)
1 Garlic Clove
1/2 Lemon (juice and zest)
1 tsp Mixed Dried Herbs
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 425°F.
In a small bowl, mix the juice and zest of 1/2 lemon, minced garlic, 1 tsp of mixed dried herbs, salt, and pepper.
Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish and pour the lemon herb mixture over it. Allow to marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Peel and cube the sweet potato into bite-sized pieces. Toss with half of the olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread on a baking sheet.
Roast the sweet potato in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until tender and slightly crispy along the edges.
While the sweet potatoes roast, heat the remaining olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken breast and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until cooked through and golden.
Remove the cooked chicken and let it rest for a few minutes. In the same pan, add the chopped Swiss chard and sauté for 2-3 minutes until wilted but still vibrant.
Plate the sliced chicken breast alongside the roasted sweet potato and sautéed chard. Drizzle any remaining pan juices over the top and serve immediately.
