Preheat the oven to 400°F. Prick the sweet potato several times with a fork. Place on a small baking sheet and bake for 45 minutes until tender in the center.
While the potato bakes, toss the asparagus on a half-sheet pan with half the olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Season the chicken breast on both sides with the dried basil, dried thyme, and the remaining salt and pepper.
When the potato is nearing the end of its time, place the asparagus in the oven and roast for 12 to 15 minutes until tender and lightly browned.
While the asparagus roasts, heat the remaining oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken for 7 minutes, flip, and cook for 7 to 8 minutes more until the center is opaque. Done when opaque in the center, 165°F.
Remove the potato and asparagus from the oven. Place the seared chicken, roasted asparagus, and sweet potato on a plate.
