Sheet pan chicken and sweet potatoes are just what I need after the week I just had. I had a busy week, followed by a jammed packed weekend. Sheet pan dinners are the perfect cure. The meals are usually quick to prepare and also require a lot less clean up. This is a great perk for times when I am strapped for time, or just in the mood to be lazy!

This dish is a sweet and savory combination. The olive oil and cinnamon are amazing on the sweet potatoes!
Juicy chicken…yes please!
Sheet pan dinners are like slow-cooker and Crockpot meals for me. You can pretty much throw all of your ingredients onto a sheet pan and then set it and forget it. There’s also very little mess to clean up with just one pan.
The chicken marinade I use here is very similar to what I use for my grilled chicken. Using the McCormick’s Grill Mates BBQ seasoning gives the chicken a zesty flavor and upgrades it from tasting like basic, oven-baked chicken.

I wanted to quick and easy meal prep for the week and I knew exactly where to go. I can always count on finding that on this website. And of course it was delicious.

This was delicious, Brandi! I don't think I've ever tried cinnamon on a savory meal, but I'll definitely be making this again!

This was a great dinner, love sheet pan dinners! I never use cinnamon with sweet potatoes, but it was so yummy! Will make this again for sure, cooking the brussel sprouts for 5 minutes longer!

This was so good and the veg and chicken were done perfectly. I did use different seasonings than the recipe since I didnโt have those on hand. I used McCormickโs Garlic & Herb seasoning for the chicken and Mrs. Dash Caribbean seasoning for the sweet potatoes.
