Step 1
Preheat oven to 425°F. Pat chicken breasts dry and flatten slightly with the heel of your hand to ½-inch even thickness.
Step 2
Stir minced garlic with lime juice, 2 tbsp oil, 0.5 tsp salt, and 0.25 tsp pepper to make mojo marinade. Rub generously over both sides of chicken.
Step 3
Arrange chicken, french fries, yuca fries, and chorizo on a large sheet pan. Drizzle fries and sausage with 1 tbsp oil and a pinch of salt.
Step 4
Roast for 12–14 minutes. Chicken is done when an instant-read thermometer reads 165°F and juices run clear.
Step 5
Remove from oven. Chicken should be golden and edges crispy; fries should be golden-brown and tender inside.
Step 6
Serve chicken with crispy fries, yuca, and chorizo on a plate. Drizzle pan juices over chicken if desired.
