An easy dinner that can be made all on one sheet pan!
Jump to RecipeThe hardest part about this recipe is chopping up your vegetables. After you have that done, you are ready to go!
Simple seasoning, and the aromatic flavour of sage while it roasts with your chicken and vegetables, gives you all the flavours of Fall.
The trick to a juicy chicken, is topping it with some butter before it roasts! As the chicken is roasting, the juices of it with the butter will infuse flavour into your vegetables.
Tip One: Cut your sweet potatoes and vegetables into small dices.
Sweet potatoes take a while to roast, so by cutting them into small pieces insures they cookies throughout in the time the chicken is done.
Tip Two: The trick to the juiciest meat, is using a meat thermometer!
I can’t say this enough, it makes all the difference! Get a cheap digital meat thermometer and take out the guess work. You will know when your meat is cooked, and you will never have dry overcooked meat again!
