Ingredients

  • 1 lb Boneless Chicken (breast or thighs)
  • 2 Medium Sweet Potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 tsp Smoked Paprika
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • Salt and Pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Peel and chop sweet potatoes into 1-inch cubes, toss with olive oil, paprika, salt, and pepper, then roast for about 25-30 minutes until golden and tender.
