Steps

Heat the oven to 400 F and grease a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with cooking oil.
Cook the chopped onion and garlic in 2 tablespoons olive oil in a skillet over medium heat for 5 minutes.
Whisk in the flour, milk, chives, salt, and pepper, then simmer for 5 minutes until thickened.
Cut the sweet potatoes into chunks, place them in the baking dish, and pour the sauce over them.
Rub the chicken thighs with 1 tablespoon olive oil, soy sauce, mustard, garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, and pepper, then arrange them over the potatoes.
Bake uncovered for 45 to 50 minutes, adding the optional cheeses during the last 5 minutes, until the chicken reaches 165 F and the potatoes are tender.
