Tips:
- Use fresh cranberries: Fresh cranberries have a brighter flavor and more nutrients than frozen or dried cranberries.
- Sweeten the dish to your liking: The amount of honey or maple syrup you add to the recipe will depend on how sweet you like your food. Start with a small amount and add more to taste.
- Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken breasts can dry out quickly, so be careful not to overcook them. Cook them until they are just cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side.
- Serve immediately: This dish is best served hot out of the oven. The chicken will be at its juiciest and the sweet potatoes will be perfectly tender.
