Sheet Pan Sweet and Spicy Chicken and Sweet Potatoes – An easy all in one sheet pan supper with a sweet heat spice!  It makes a great healthy dinner idea!

I love a good sheet pan supper idea!  This Sheet Pan Sweet and Spicy Chicken and Sweet Potatoes is no exception.  Any meal that I can throw all the ingredients in a gallon-sized bag and not need to wash an extra dish is my kind of meal.

This makes such an easy weeknight supper idea.  Your main ingredient and your side is done in one!  Serve it with a green salad, and you have a great healthy supper idea.

Tips for making Sheet Pan Sweet and Spicy Chicken and Sweet Potatoes:

• The smaller your cube is on the sweet potatoes, the quicker they will roast.
• If you want a little extra char on those potatoes, turn on the broiler the last 4 to 5 minutes of baking time.
• Don’t have chicken tenderloins?  You can easily use chicken breasts and slice them into strips.  
• Line your baking sheet with foil or use a Silpat mat for easy clean up.
