- 5 teaspoons spicy bbq seasoning (divided)
- salt and pepper (to taste)
- 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs (patted dry and lightly pounded)
- ½ cup plain greek yogurt (or sour cream)
- 2 teaspoons dijon mustard (or more to taste)
- 1 pound sweet potatoes (diced into 1-inch pieces)

- coleslaw mix (with black beans and corn added if you like)
- cooked rice (or another grain)
- chopped cilantro, sliced avocado, lime wedges
- chili powder, cayenne pepper, or sriracha
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and prepare a sheet pan with foil or parchment.
- In a measuring cup, whisk together olive oil, honey, lime juice, 3 teaspoons of BBQ seasoning, and salt/pepper until smooth.
- In a large bowl, mix ½ cup of the oil mixture with the remaining BBQ seasoning and chicken thighs; toss well and let sit for up to 20 minutes.
- Whisk yogurt (or sour cream) and Dijon mustard into the remaining oil mixture; cover and refrigerate for serving later.
- Place the chicken on one side of the sheet pan and toss sweet potatoes in the remaining oil mixture before arranging them on the other side. Roast for 15 minutes.
- Remove from the oven, add broccoli, and baste the chicken lightly; roast for another 10-15 minutes until cooked through and tender.
- Serve directly from the pan with the dipping sauce, or build bowls with rice, slaw, and toppings.
Notes
For best results, let the chicken marinate for at least 20 minutes.
