Begin by placing 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts in the bottom of your crockpot. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup of pure maple syrup, 2 tablespoons of Dijon mustard, and 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar until well combined.
Pour this maple-mustard mixture over the chicken, ensuring each piece is well coated. Next, peel and chop 2 medium sweet potatoes into 1-inch cubes and add them to the crockpot around the chicken.
Season the mixture with 1 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, and 1 teaspoon of garlic powder for added flavor.
Cover the crockpot and cook on low for 6 hours or on high for 3 hours, until the chicken is cooked through and the sweet potatoes are tender.
About 30 minutes before serving, stir in 2 cups of chopped kale, allowing it to wilt and absorb the flavors.
Once cooked, serve the chicken and sweet potatoes on a platter, drizzling any remaining glaze from the crockpot over the top for an extra burst of flavor.
Garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and enjoy your delicious, healthy meal!
