Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, and minced garlic to create the glaze.
Place the chicken thighs on one half of the prepared baking sheet. Brush generously with the honey-soy glaze.
On the other half of the baking sheet, spread out the broccoli florets and carrot slices. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the vegetables, and season with half the salt and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
Roast the chicken and vegetables in the oven for 25 minutes, flipping the chicken halfway through for even cooking.
Meanwhile, in a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the cubed sweet potatoes for 15-20 minutes or until fork-tender. Drain well.
Mash the sweet potatoes with butter, milk, remaining salt, black pepper, and a sprinkle of cinnamon for a cozy flavor twist.
Once the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F or 74°C) and slightly caramelized, remove the baking sheet from the oven.
Serve the honey-glazed chicken and roasted vegetables over a bed of fluffy mashed sweet potatoes for a delicious, whimsical meal.
