INGREDIENTS
6 oz Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast (~170g)
1 medium Carrot (~61g)
1 small Parsnip (~70g)
1 tsp Olive Oil (~4.5g)
Juice and zest of 1/2 Lemon (~30g)
1 clove Garlic (~3g)
2 sprigs Fresh Thyme
2 sprigs Fresh Rosemary
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice and zest, minced garlic, and roughly chopped thyme and rosemary.
Pat the chicken breast dry with paper towels. Rub the lemon-herb mixture evenly over the chicken, ensuring a good coating on all sides.
Peel the carrot and parsnip, then cut them into uniform sticks or chunks for even roasting.
Toss the vegetables with a drizzle of olive oil, a pinch of salt, and additional herbs if desired.
Place the chicken breast and vegetables on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
For a crispier finish, you may broil the dish for an additional 2-3 minutes, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing. Serve alongside the roasted vegetables.
