2 tablespoons Olive Oil
2 medium Sweet Potatoes, diced
1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1/2 teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes (optional)

Instructions
Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, combine maple syrup, Dijon mustard, olive oil, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes (if using). Whisk until well blended.
Marinate the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring it’s well coated. Seal and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to overnight for more flavor).
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Prepare the Sweet Potatoes: On a baking sheet, toss the diced sweet potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt. Spread them out in a single layer.
Roast the Sweet Potatoes: Place the sweet potatoes in the oven and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until they are fork-tender and slightly caramelized.
Bake the Chicken: While the sweet potatoes are roasting, remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on another baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F/75°C).
Assemble the Bowls: Once everything is cooked, begin assembling your bowls. Layer the roasted sweet potatoes at the bottom, followed by sliced or chopped Maple Dijon chicken.
Garnish: Finish with fresh herbs and any additional garnishes per your choice.
Serve: Enjoy your Maple Dijon Chicken & Roasted Sweet Potato Bowls warm, sharing the joy with your loved ones!
