INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Cooked Lentils (~100g)
1 cup Mixed Root Vegetables (~100g)
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Fresh Herbs (rosemary, thyme, parsley)
1 clove Garlic
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Pat dry the chicken breast and season both sides with salt, pepper, chopped fresh herbs, and minced garlic.
Heat a skillet over medium heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Sear the chicken breast for 2 minutes on each side until lightly browned.
Transfer the chicken to a baking dish and place it in the oven. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken bakes, chop the mixed root vegetables into evenly sized pieces. Toss the vegetables with a small amount of olive oil, salt, pepper, and a sprinkle of fresh herbs.
Spread the vegetables on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for about 20 minutes, stirring halfway through, until tender and slightly caramelized.
Prepare the lentils as per package instructions if not pre-cooked. Warm them up with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Plate the seared herb-crusted chicken alongside a serving of lentils and a generous portion of roasted root vegetables. Serve warm.
