Roasted broccoli salad

Healthy one-pan chicken, sweet potatoes, and broccoli oven-roasted to perfection! This quick one-pan dish is roasted broccoli salad full of flavor and is GREAT for meal prepping too!

What makes this easy roast chicken and vegetables next level good is after you bake it, you broil it to lock in those juicy flavors. Plus, the broccoli and sweet potatoes are perfectly tender and seasoned beautifully. Not only can you make an entire meal with one dish, but you can also meal prep it, so it’s available later as well. Having meals prepped ahead of time is a game-changer when it comes to eating something healthy when you are in a hurry. You are way less likely to hit a drive-thru if you have healthy food ready to heat and eat. Cajun or Taco Seasoning: Depending on your preferences and what you have on hand, either seasoning is delicious in one pan dinner idea.

Garlic: You can add as little or as much garlic as you like, but I recommend 2-3 minced cloves, so it’s not too overpowering. Olive Oil or Butter: If you haven’t noticed, this roasted chicken breast recipe is perfect for adjusting. Its versatility allows you to swap ingredients like butter or olive oil easily! You don’t need a lot, just a tablespoon. It adds a zesty punch of flavor that’s perfection! The combination of the seasonings, chicken, and sweet potatoes is so delicious. Plus, you are getting lots of nutrient-rich foods with every bite you take.

With this one-pan roasted chicken, I prefer to use broccoli florets. You can cook broccoli stems with the florets, but keep mind they won’t cook as fast or be as tender. Secondly, whenever you adjust the recipe, keep in mind that the nutritional information will change. So if you are on a certain diet or lifestyle, you’ll want to be mindful of that.

While the sweet potatoes are baking, combine the chicken, seasoning, garlic, olive oil, and lemon juice in a large mixing bowl. Mix until the chicken is fully coated with spices. If the pan is too small, split them into two pans. Return sheet pan to the oven and bake another 15 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. To Meal-Prep: allow the chicken to cool for at least 5-10 minutes before cutting.
