Notes from the chef

Tips.

  1. For extra crispy skin, pat chicken completely dry before seasoning
  2. Cut sweet potatoes uniformly for even cooking
  3. Use a meat thermometer to ensure chicken is fully cooked
  4. Can substitute chicken breasts but reduce cooking time by 5-10 minutes
  5. Add rosemary or sage for additional flavor
