Looking for a chicken sweet potato spinach recipe? This delicious bake is for you!

Believe me, I am not exaggerating when I say that this is one of my favourite new meals that I have created! It was just sooooo tasty. 

Scroll down for the full recipe and ingredients, but there is some useful info before!

I wasn't even expecting to make it into a proper recipe, but it just tasted so nice that I knew you lot would appreciate it too!!

Packed with onions, mushrooms and sweet potato this dish is super filling, yet pretty low on carb too. 

If you wanted to make this dish vegetarian friendly, you could double the amount of sweet potato in the dish, and cut out the chicken. 

It was ready in just 45 minutes too, meaning it is great for a weeknight meal. 

I used one of my favourite enamel baking trays to cook this dish, but you could use any baking tin or tray. 

I cooked off the chicken and veggies in a pan first to help reduce cooking time when everything is in the oven.

You could serve this on it's own or with a side salad.
