No reviews

Sheet pan simplicity meets sophisticated flavor! Tangy Dijon cuts the sweetness of maple-glazed chicken and roasted root vegetables. Quick prep, easy cleanup. Full nutritional data and steps included.

  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs Boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed
  • 2 large Sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 1 cup Brussels sprouts, halved
  • 3 Tbsp Olive oil
  • 1/4 cup Maple syrup
  • 3 Tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp Kosher salt and 1/2 tsp Black pepper

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). On a large sheet pan, toss the cubed sweet potatoes and halved Brussels sprouts with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast for 15 minutes to give the root vegetables a head start.
  2. Step 2: While the vegetables roast, prepare the maple-Dijon glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup and Dijon mustard until well combined. Set aside 1/4 of the glaze for finishing the bowls.
  3. Step 3: Remove the sheet pan from the oven. Push the vegetables to one side, then add the cubed chicken to the center of the pan. Drizzle the chicken with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and a pinch of salt.
  4. Step 4: Drizzle the chicken cubes and the vegetables liberally with the majority of the maple-Dijon glaze (reserving the small amount set aside in Step 2). Toss to coat everything well, then return the pan to the oven.
  5. Step 5: Continue roasting for another 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) and the sweet potatoes are tender.
  6. Step 6: Remove the sheet pan from the oven. Divide the mixture into serving bowls and drizzle each bowl with the reserved maple-Dijon glaze before serving.

Notes

  • Keep any leftovers sealed tightly in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; the flavor often deepens overnight.
  • To revive the crispy edges on the sweet potatoes and Brussels sprouts, reheat servings in a toaster oven or air fryer at 350°F (175°C) until warmed through, rather than using a microwave.
  • Elevate the finished bowls by topping them with a sprinkle of toasted pecans or a few shakes of chili flakes for added crunch and subtle heat.
  • If you prefer less sweetness or a tangier glaze, try balancing the flavor by adding a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar or fresh lemon juice to the maple-Dijon mixture before glazing the ingredients.
