Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to 400°F.

Make a dressing by mixing together the oil, vinegar, and the salt in a bowl. Set aside.
3
Peel and thinly slice the sweet potato.
4
Drain the canned chickpeas and rinse well.
5
Spread the sweet potato slices over a baking pan. Scatter the chickpeas over the pan. It doesn’t matter if they cover the sweet potato slices.
6
Drizzle the contents of the pan with the dressing you made earlier. Make sure everything is well covered. Add a little more oil if needed. Roast in the oven at 400°F for 12–15 minutes. Next, open the oven, turn the sweet potato slices over, and stir the chickpeas a little. Put the tray back into oven and roast for 10 more minutes.

Then turn off the oven, take out the pan, and serve directly on the table.
Tips & Tricks
The sweet potato will take longer to cook if cut into thick slices. Cut them thinly, as indicated the recipe, to save time.
If your sweet potato is quite small, use two.
