Honey Garlic Chicken with Sweet Potatoes and Green Beans

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • ¼ cup honey
  • ¼ cup soy sauce
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 2 cups fresh green beans, ends trimmed
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Prepare a large baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or lightly greasing it.
  2. In a small bowl, mix together the honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, olive oil, paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper until the ingredients are well blended.
  3. Put the chicken breasts into a resealable bag or a bowl. Pour half of the marinade over them, then seal or cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 2 hours.
  4. Drizzle olive oil over the sweet potato cubes, then season with salt and pepper. Spread them out on the prepared baking sheet and roast for 15 minutes.
  5. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and add the green beans, stirring gently with the sweet potatoes to combine.
  6. Arrange the marinated chicken breasts on top of the vegetables. Pour the remaining marinade over the chicken.
  7. Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F) and the vegetables are tender.
  8. Let the dish rest for 5 minutes before slicing the chicken. Serve with the pan juices drizzled over the top for extra flavor.
