Jamaican All Purpose Roast Chicken & Sweet Potatoes

Jamaican All Purpose roast chicken thighs with caramelised sweet potatoes, peppers, red onion and fresh lime on a rustic roasting tray.

This colourful Jamaican All Purpose Roast Chicken pairs juicy, golden chicken thighs with caramelised sweet potatoes and peppers. It is an easy one-tray dinner with bold Caribbean-inspired flavour and very little washing up. It is made especially easy with our Jamaican All Purpose Seasoning.

🧾 Ingredients

  • 6 bone-in chicken thighs
  • 2 tbsp Jamaican All Purpose Seasoning
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 lime, zest and juice

  • 600g sweet potatoes, cut into chunks
  • 2 mixed peppers, sliced
  • 1 red onion, cut into wedges
  • Sea salt, to taste
  • Fresh coriander and lime wedges, to serve

👩‍🍳 Instructions

  1. Heat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/Gas 6.
  2. Mix the seasoning, olive oil, lime zest, half the lime juice and garlic. Rub over the chicken thighs.
  3. Spread the sweet potatoes, peppers and onion across a large roasting tray. Season lightly and place the chicken on top.
  4. Roast for 40–45 minutes, turning the vegetables halfway, until the chicken is golden and cooked through.
