Notes
*If you have thicker chicken breasts, slice them in half to create thinner pieces. This will help make sure they cook through properly. You can make this recipe with boneless chicken thighs, but the cooking time will need to be adjusted.
**Another potato can be used in place of sweet potatoes.
***Agave syrup is a good substitute.
Tips:
- If you like, marinate the chicken in the maple dijon mixture for 15 minutes (or up to 2 hours) before baking.
- Try to cut the sweet potatoes into equal-sized pieces so they all cook at the same rate.
- The Brussels sprouts will cook faster than the chicken and sweet potatoes, so wait 10 minutes before adding them to the pan.
- I recommend preheating the sheet pan for about 5 minute before placing the chicken and veggies on it.
- In addition to the vegetables, I like to serve this sheet pan maple dijon chicken with wild rice.
