1 teaspoon olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.
Toss together sweet potatoes
Brussels sprouts
2 teaspoons olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Set aside.
Brush chicken with remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil; sprinkle with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Arrange chicken
skin-side down
in the center of the prepared pan. Arrange sweet potato mixture around chicken.
Roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Turn chicken over; brush chicken
sweet potatoes
and Brussels sprouts with maple syrup mixture.
Continue to roast until sweet potatoes are tender and chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear
