INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 medium Carrot
1 medium Parsnip
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tsp Mixed Dried Herbs
Salt and Black Pepper, to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a shallow dish, mix the whole wheat breadcrumbs with the mixed dried herbs, salt, and black pepper. Squeeze in the lemon juice to add moisture and tang.
Pat the chicken breast dry. Lightly coat the chicken with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken breast for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden and crisp.
Meanwhile, chop the carrot and parsnip into bite-sized pieces. Toss the vegetables in a little extra olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Transfer the chopped vegetables into the skillet around the chicken or onto a separate baking tray.
Place the skillet (or tray) in the preheated oven and roast for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F) and the vegetables are tender.
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes. Serve the crispy lemon herb chicken alongside the roasted root vegetables.
