Chicken with vegetables from the oven, a quick lunch or dinner

Chicken with sweet potatoes and green asparagus is an idea for a simple, quick and very tasty dinner.

We start cooking the dish on the burner and finish it in the oven. Therefore, we need a frying pan or cast iron pot that can be used in the oven.

Outside the asparagus season, we can add green beans, young pea pods or mushrooms and onions to chicken and sweet potatoes.

We can fry chicken legs and bake them with or without the bone, I usually cut it out. If the legs are fresh, I will freeze the bones for later. If it is defrosted, I prepare the broth right away and plan a dish based on it for the next day.
