  3. Spread into an even layer and roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, chop and prep the remaining ingredients.

  4. Remove sweet potatoes from the oven, add chicken pieces, broccoli florets, and red onion around sweet potatoes, placing everything randomly. 

  5. Sprinkle with garlic and drizzle everything with the remaining 3 tablespoons of olive oil (focusing mostly on the broccoli so it doesn’t dry) and toss with a spatula to evenly coat.

  7. Toss again to evenly coat with seasonings and spread out evenly, trying not to overlap chicken pieces.
