Begin by marinating the chicken breasts in a mixture of maple syrup, cinnamon, soy sauce, and minced garlic for at least 30 minutes to enhance the flavor.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, ensuring it's well-oiled to prevent sticking. While the grill heats, peel and chop the sweet potatoes into even chunks and boil them in salted water until tender, about 15 minutes.
Drain the sweet potatoes and return them to the pot, then mash them with butter, salt, and dried cranberries for a sweet and savory side.
Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing to retain its juices. Serve the grilled chicken over a generous scoop of sweet potato-cranberry mash, garnished with a sprinkle of chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and flavor.
Enjoy your soul-warming meal!
