Ingredients

Honey Mustard Dressing

  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 Tablespoons whole grain mustard
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 2 Tablespoons honey
  • pinch of salt

Chicken & Sweet Potatoes

  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 cup honey mustard dressing
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes
  • 1 small red onion
  • 2 Tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • pinch of black pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Prepare the honey mustard dressing by whisking all the ingredients together in a small bowl. You can skip this and use a bottle of honey mustard dressing if you prefer.
  • Place chicken breasts between two layers of Saran wrap and tendering by hitting with a rolling pin or tenderizer until they are even and 1/2 inch thick.
  • Add 1/2 cup honey mustard to a gallon resealable bag with the chicken breasts. Place in the refrigerator to marinate.
  • Peel and chop the sweet potatoes into 1/2 inch thick pieces. Chop onion into 1 inch pieces. Add veggies to a sheet pan and drizzle with olive oil. Toss with the garlic powder, salt and pepper.
  • Bake at 400°F for 20 minutes.
  • Remove the chicken breasts from the honey mustard and discard any marinade. Nestle the chicken into the sweet potatoes. Don't place on top of the vegetables.
  • Bake an additional 15-20 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
  • Remove from the oven and serve with additional honey mustard for dipping.
