1️⃣ Roast the Sweet Potatoes
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat with a little olive oil.
Sear chicken 5–6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
Remove chicken and set aside.
3️⃣ Make the Honey Garlic Glaze
In the same skillet, lower heat to medium.
Add butter and garlic; sauté 30 seconds until fragrant.
Stir in honey, soy sauce, and vinegar.
Simmer 2–3 minutes until slightly thickened.
4️⃣ Glaze the Chicken
Return chicken to the skillet.
Spoon glaze over the chicken and simmer 2–3 minutes, turning to coat well.
