This was very good and easy - essentially roasted breasts with interesting flavors. All you need is a green vegetable to complete since the sweet potatoes are cooked with the chicken.
Spiced Chipotle Honey Chicken Breasts with Sweet Potatoes
Excerpt From: Melissa Clark - In the Kitchen with A Good Appetite
Time: 15 minutes, plus 35 to 40 minutes’ roasting
Serves 6
4 sweet potatoes (10 ounces each), peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
3 tablespoons olive oil
4 chipotle chiles in adobo sauce, minced
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons honey
2 teaspoons cider vinegar
1¼ teaspoons kosher salt, plus additional to taste
1 teaspoon ground cumin
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (2 pounds), rinsed and patted dry
Chopped cilantro or basil, for garnish
1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. In a medium bowl, toss the sweet potatoes in 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and scatter on the bottom of a roasting pan. Roast for 15 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, chipotles, garlic, honey, vinegar, salt, cumin, and cinnamon to make a paste. Rub the paste all over the chicken. Carefully place the chicken on top of the sweet potatoes and continue to roast until the chicken is just cooked through, about 25 minutes longer. Serve garnished with cilantro or basil.
