Roommate dinner is back.
I have MISSED them.
Seriously, I have the best roommates ever, and though I was gone for only two weeks, it felt like so much longer.
After countless stories, and lies about the happenings of the past few weeks, we sat down to a great meal of honey rum chicken. Its so easy, and fast, and warming for the winter.

honey rum chicken
2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken
2 sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
1/2 red onion, sliced
2 large carrots, chopped
3 cloves garlic, chopped
3 Tablespoons Honey
1/4 cup rum
2 Tablespoons olive oil
1 Tablespoon Italian seasonings.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Coat the bottom of a 13x9 pan with 1 Tablespoon olive oil.
Arrange the chicken in the bottom of the pan.
Toss the remaining ingredients in a large bowl.
Pour over chicken. Bake for about 30 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and vegetables are tender. It may be a good idea to shake the pan halfway through to evenly distribute juices.
Remove from the oven and let it sit for 5-7 minutes. 

This is a great dish served with rice.
