Sheet Pan Chicken with Sweet Potatoes Apples & Brussels Sprouts
INGREDIENTS:
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, trimmed of excess fat and lightly pounded to a relatively even thickness
- 3 tablespoons CannaOil (see #41cblog for recipe)
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary divided
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt divided
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper divided
- 4 cups Brussels sprouts trimmed and halved (quarter if huge), about 1 pound
- 1 large sweet potato peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
- 1 medium red onion cut into 3/4-inch pieces
- 1 medium Granny Smith Apple peeled, cored, and cut into roughly 1-inch pieces
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Place the chicken breasts in a large ziplock bag. Drizzle with 1 1/2 tablespoons Cannaoil, then add the garlic, 1 tablespoon rosemary, cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Zip the bag tightly, then shake and rub the bag to coat the chicken with oil and spices. Set aside while you chop the vegetables and apples, or refrigerate for up to 1 day.
- Once chopped, place the Brussels sprouts, sweet potato, onion, and apple on a large, rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons Cannaoil, then sprinkle with remaining 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Toss to evenly coat, then spread into an even layer.
- Remove the chicken from the marinade and place on top of the apple and vegetables. Place in the oven and roast until the chicken is cooked and the internal temperature reaches 160 to 165 degrees F, about 18 to 22 minutes, or until done. Once the chicken is cooked, remove it to a plate to rest. Cover with foil to keep warm. Toss the apple and vegetables on the pan, then return the pan to the oven and continue baking until caramelized and tender, about 10 to 15 additional minutes. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary. Serve warm with the rested chicken.
