Wash and dry all produce. Dice @sweet potatoes{1%lb} into ½-inch pieces. Place in a #large microwave-safe bowl{}, cover with plastic wrap, and microwave until softened ~{5%minutes}. You will finish cooking them later.

Meanwhile, trim and halve @zucchini{2%unit} lengthwise; slice crosswise into ½-inch-thick half-moons. Halve, peel, and slice @red onion{1%unit} into ½-inch-thick wedges.

In a #small bowl{}, combine @vidalia onion paste{2%tbsp}, @dijon mustard{2%tbsp}, half the @maple syrup{2%tbsp}, and @water{2%tbsp}. Season with @black pepper{1%tsp} and set aside.

Pat @chicken cutlets{2%pieces} dry with paper towels; place between two large pieces of plastic wrap. Pound with a mallet or rolling pin until chicken is about ½ inch thick. Lightly season all over with @salt{1%tsp} and black pepper.

Heat a drizzle of @cooking oil{2%tbsp} in a #large pan{} over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook until browned and cooked through ~{4%minutes} per side.

Remove pan from heat. Add the maple Dijon sauce and @butter{1%tbsp}, stirring until butter has melted and turning chicken to evenly coat. If sauce seems too thick, add a splash of water.

While chicken rests, heat a drizzle of cooking oil in a second #large pan{} over medium-high heat. Add sweet potatoes, zucchini, and onion wedges; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until softened and lightly browned ~{6%minutes}.

Divide vegetable jumble between plates or shallow bowls. Top with chicken. Spoon any remaining maple Dijon sauce from pan over chicken and vegetables. Serve.
