Preheat the oven to 400°F. Toss the sweet potato cubes on a half-sheet pan with half the olive oil and half the salt. Spread in a single layer and roast for 20 to 25 minutes until tender and browned at the edges.
While the potatoes roast, season the chicken breast with black pepper and the remaining salt. Heat the remaining oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 6 to 7 minutes.
Flip the chicken. Add the garlic to the skillet and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in the honey, soy sauce, and lemon juice. Cook for 5 to 6 minutes, spooning the sauce over the chicken often, until the sauce is thick and the chicken is cooked through. Done when opaque in the center, 165°F.
In a small pot, bring the water to a boil. Add the broccoli florets, cover, and steam for 5 to 6 minutes until bright green and tender. Drain any remaining water. Done when bright green and tender.
Place the chicken on the plate and drizzle with the remaining pan glaze. Serve the roasted sweet potatoes and steamed broccoli alongside.
