1
Prep the sweet potato and onion
Heat the oven to 400°F.
- Scrub or peel the sweet potato; cut the potato in half lengthwise, then crosswise into ¼-inch-thick half-moons.
- Peel the onion and cut it crosswise into ¼-inch-thick slices; separate the slices into rings.
On one end of a sheet pan [on 1 sheet pan], toss the sweet potato and onion with 1 to 2 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper and spread in an even layer.
2
Prep the chicken wings
- Set aside 2 tablespoons [¼ cup] spicy chipotle barbacoa sauce for serving.
- Pat the chicken wings dry with a paper towel; season with salt and pepper.
On the other end of the sheet pan [on a 2nd sheet pan], toss the chicken wings to coat with all except 2 tablespoons [¼ cup] barbacoa sauce. Arrange the wings in an even layer.
3
Roast the sweet potato, onion, and chicken
Roast, stirring the vegetables and turning the chicken wings halfway through, until the vegetables are tender and the wings are cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare the salsa verde.
4
Make the salsa verde
- Finely chop, press, or grate enough garlic to measure 1 teaspoon [2 tsp].
- Finely chop the cilantro.
- Juice half the lime; cut the remaining half into wedges for garnish. [Juice 1 lime; cut the remaining lime into wedges.]
In a small bowl, stir together the garlic, cilantro, lime juice, half the cumin, and 2 tablespoons [¼ cup] oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper and more cumin, if desired.
Serve
Transfer the chicken wings to individual plates and brush with the remaining barbacoa sauce or serve on the side for dipping. Arrange the roasted vegetables alongside and top with the salsa verde. Serve with the lime wedges.
