    Traybakes seem to be my go to this time of year. I love that I can flavour a choice of protein with some spices, add some healthy vegetable place in the oven and then a little while later a complete meal is on the table.

    The chicken is so tender and delicious, flavoured with the unique blend of spices such as coriander, cumin, cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg. It's a complete flavour sensation against the yummy sweetness of roasted sweet potato and peppers.

    You could add some additional sides too if you want a more substantial meal, but it is seriously perfect and delicious just as it is.

    How can I add a ⅓ speed foods to this Moroccan Chicken with Roasted Sweet Potato Traybake?

    The yummy recipe already includes leeks, onion and peppers and you really want to increase the speed foods try replacing the sweet potato with butternut squash. Another great choice is to add some greens like sauteed Brussels or green beans.

      Saw this recipe whilst browsing for new meal ideas. Quickly added the ingredients to my shopping list. It was only when I came to prepare the meal later that evening that I noticed leeks have been missed off the ingredients list! Really hope this does not alter that taste too much!

      Hi Victoria - sorry about that, it won't affect the taste, i've made this many a time without the leek. Enjoy!!
