Spicy Marmalade Chicken and Sweet Potatoes

NYT Cooking's most flavorful sheet-pan dinner from Melissa Clark — chicken and sweet potatoes roasted with a sticky-sweet glaze of orange marmalade, fish sauce, soy sauce, garlic, and crushed red pepper until caramelized.

Ingredients

  • 8 bone-in chicken thighs
  • 2 large sweet potatoes
  • 1/3 cup orange marmalade
  • 2 tbsp fish sauce
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • kosher salt
  • fresh lime juice

Instructions

  1. Heat oven to 425F. Whisk marmalade, fish sauce, soy sauce, minced garlic, and crushed red pepper in a bowl.
  2. Toss sweet potato wedges with olive oil and salt; spread on a sheet pan and roast 15 min.
  3. Toss chicken thighs in the marmalade mixture to coat; add skin-side up to the sheet pan among the sweet potatoes. Spoon extra sauce over everything.
  4. Roast, tossing sweet potatoes once or twice, until chicken is cooked through and caramelized and sweet potatoes are soft, 25-35 min. Finish with a squeeze of lime juice.
