Ingredients

  • 1 lb bone-in chicken breast (this works well with chicken thighs or boneless chicken breasts)
  • 1/4 cup dijon mustard
  • 2 tbsp olive oil divided
  • 2 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp salt divided
  • 1/2 tsp pepper (or to taste) divided
  • 1 sweet potato chopped
  • 1/2 red onion chopped
  • 1 lb brussel sprouts cut in halves
  • 1 granny smith apple chopped
  • 1/4 cup pomegranate seeds optional

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

  2. In a bowl, toss your veggies and apples together and pour a tablespoon of oil on top. Stir until vegetables are coated with the olive oil. Spread the veggies evenly on a sheet pan. Sprinkle with 1/2 tsp of salt and a dash of pepper.

  3. In a small bowl mix 1/4 cup Dijon mustard, a tablespoon of olive oil, and two teaspoons of thyme in a bowl.

  4. Salt and pepper your chicken and then spread the mustard mixture over your chicken.

  5. You can place your chicken on top of the vegetables or use a separate sheet pan. Roast for about 20 minutes for boneless chicken breasts or thighs, 35 to 40 minutes for bone-in chicken. Check with a thermometer (it should be 160 degrees).

    Roast vegetables on a sheet pan for 30 to 35 minutes turning once halfway through the roasting time.
