Ingredients

600 g chicken breast
800 g sweet potato Kumara
1 head broccoli or equivalent green vegetables
50 g butter
¼ C maple syrup

Instructions

Preheat oven to 200-220 degrees celsius
Pop ¼ cup maple syrup and 50g butter in a pot, heat until it boils and thickens a little (it will become almost a thin caramel)
While the maple caramel heats, Peel and chop the kumara and prep the chicken. Slice the chicken into even portions, oil the chicken and season with salt and pepper as desired
Place the kumara and chicken in a large roasting dish or sheet pan
Pour over the maple caramel
Bake in the hot oven for 15 minutes
Remove and turn over the kumara and chicken so they are coated in the sauce, add the green veggies.
Return the tray back to the hot oven for a further 10-15 minutes until the chicken is cooked
Serve

Notes

For the vegetables you can swap the broccoli for something else, green beans work well, in the photos you can see I have used a mix of green beans and broccoli
