If you took Autumn, coated it in honey butter and put in a skillet – this would be IT. This is one of the tastiest meals I’ve ever made and now I’m craving every single day.

Even the kids like this dish! That’s a winner when you’ve got picky little toddlers.

But nobody can resist that sweet and savory honey butter and tender sweet potatoes!

The best part is that this is a one-pan meal and it’s ready in about 30 minutes. In my book that’s a recipe for a perfect weeknight dinner.

To make it, you start by seasoning the chicken with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and dried herbs. Melt some butter in a skillet and stir in honey to make the honey butter sauce.

Brown the chicken in that crazy delicious honey butter and then scoot the chicken off to the sides to make room in the center of the skillet.

Add a little more honey and butter to the middle of the skillet and then toss in your sweet potatoes along with some pecans and dried cranberries.

Move the skillet to the oven and bake for about 15 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the sweet potatoes are fork-tender.

That’s it! Top it off with some cracked black pepper and fresh thyme and serve. Your family will beg you to make this dish over and over again!

The great news? You won’t mind one bit because it’s such a cinch to whip up.

“ Wow! This is the first time I’ve cooked chicken that was not dry and nasty. This recipe was incredible! I couldn’t believe I made it myself I took the chicken out of the oven after 15 mins and kept it covered in the microwave, and allowed the sweet potatoes to cook an additional 15 mins. I only had walnuts so i used them. It was incredible. Thank you!” – Julie
