Before starting, preheat the oven to 425°F. Wash and dry all produce. Pat chicken dry with paper towels, then arrange on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Season with salt, pepper and BBQ Seasoning. Drizzle with 1 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl). Roast chicken in the top of the oven until golden-brown and cooked through, 35-40 min.**
Meanwhile, peel, then cut sweet potatoes into 1-inch pieces. Add sweet potatoes, 1 tsp salt and enough water to cover (by approx. 1 inch) to a large pot (use same for 4 ppl). Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-high. Simmer uncovered until fork-tender, 10-12 min.
Meanwhile, thinly slice green onions. Stir together mayo, sour cream, green onions, cheese, baking powder, 2 tbsp water, 1 tsp sugar and 1/2 tsp salt (dbl all for 4 ppl) in a large bowl. Add flour, then stir until just combined. Using your hands, form dough into a loose ball. Flatten dough, pressing into a 1-inch-thick disc. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, halve dough and make 2 discs.)
Cut biscuit dough disc into 8 equal wedges. (NOTE: You will have 16 wedges for 4 ppl.) Transfer biscuits to another parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake in the middle of the oven until puffed up and golden on the bottom, 12-15 min.
Meanwhile, trim green beans. Core, then cut pepper into 1/4-inch slices. Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add green beans, peppers and 3 tbsp water (dbl for 4 ppl). Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender-crisp, 4-5 min. Add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl). Cook, stirring often, until veggies are coated, 1 min. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer veggies to a plate, then cover with foil to keep warm.
When sweet potatoes are fork-tender, drain and return them to the same pot, off heat. Mash half the maple syrup (use all for 4 ppl) and 2 tbsp butter (dbl for 4 ppl) into sweet potatoes until smooth. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Carve chicken. Divide mash, chicken, veggies and biscuits between plates.
