Sheet Pan Chicken and Sweet Potatoes

This Sheet Pan Chicken and Sweet Potatoes is the perfect all-in-one dinner when you want something quick and hearty. Juicy chicken spiced with Thai red curry paste and nestled around roasted sweet potatoes and topped with crispy, spicy kale. It’s delightful, healthy and not a lot of work. Serve family-style, straight from the pan.

This chicken dish is easy to put together. While the oven preheats, toss the sweet potato wedges and red onion slices with minced garlic and ginger, a drizzle of olive oil, and a pinch of salt on a large sheet pan. Then, prepare the marinade. Top the veggies with chicken pieces and drizzle them with half the marinade. Rub the chicken with the marinade. Roast at a high temperature until the meat is tender and the skin is crisp. Towards the end of cooking, toss the kale leaves with the remaining marinade and nestle the leaves among the chicken. Finally, roast for another five minutes or so, until the kale leaves are crispy and slightly charred. Serve right away!
