Seasoning the chicken with a bit of apple cider vinegar beforehand helps tenderize the chicken before roasting.

Recipe information

  • Total Time

    45 minutes

  • Yield

    4 Servings

Ingredients

4 skin on, bone in chicken breasts
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
2 fresh Chorizo, sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
4 large garlic cloves, smashed
2 large sweet potatoes cut into long wedges about ½” thick
1 large red onion, cut in half and then cut each half into quarters
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 sprig rosemary, plus additional for garnish

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 425°. Season chicken with vinegar, salt and pepper; set aside. Heat 1 Tbsp. olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add chorizo and cook, stirring occasionally until starting to brown about 2 minutes. Add chicken, skin side down and cook, until golden brown, 5-8 minutes

    Step 2

    Toss sweet potatoes, garlic, onion, rosemary, white wine and remaining Tbsp. oil on a rimmed baking sheet. Place chicken and chorizo on top of vegetables and roast until chicken is cooked through and potatoes are tender, 20-25 minutes.

    Step 3

    Divide chicken and potatoes among plates and garnish with additional rosemary.
