Ingredients
Scale
2 large sweet potatoes
1 yellow onion
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon chipotle powder
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/2 cup BBQ sauce
1 cup broccoli
Instructions
Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Prepare the Vegetables: On a lined sheet pan, combine the chopped sweet potatoes and onions. Toss them generously with olive oil, salt, garlic powder, and chipotle powder.
Roast the Vegetables: Bake the sweet potatoes and onions for about 20 minutes, or until they start to soften and turn golden brown.
Add the Broccoli and Chicken: After the initial roasting, stir in the broccoli. Place the chicken breasts on the pan and brush them liberally with BBQ sauce.
Bake Until Cooked Through: Return the sheet pan to the oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes.
Shred the Chicken: Once cooked, remove the chicken from the pan and shred it using two forks.
Assemble and Serve: Divide the roasted chicken and vegetables between three bowls and dig in immediately.
Notes
Check Chicken Temperature: Use a meat thermometer to ensure chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).
Perfect Roasting Timing: Don’t overcrowd the pan.
Meal Prep Friendly: For easy meal prep, freeze individual portions in airtight containers.
Flavor Variations: Experiment with different BBQ sauces.
Broccoli Alternatives: If using frozen broccoli, add it during the last 5-10 minutes of roasting.
