INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 medium Red Bell Pepper
1/2 medium Zucchini
1 small Carrot
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Fresh Rosemary
1 tsp Fresh Thyme
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry and season generously with salt, pepper, fresh rosemary, and thyme. Drizzle a bit of lemon juice over the chicken and let it marinate for 10 minutes.
Heat half of the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken breast and sear for approximately 4-5 minutes on each side until a golden, herb-crusted exterior forms and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken is cooking, preheat your oven to 425°F. Chop the red bell pepper, zucchini, and carrot into bite-sized pieces. Toss them in the remaining olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper.
Spread the vegetables on a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, stirring halfway through, until tender and slightly caramelized.
Slice the chicken breast and serve it over the roasted vegetables. Drizzle any remaining pan juices and a sprinkle of fresh lemon juice on top to finish.
