INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
0.5 ounce unsalted Pistachios, crushed
1 cup Mixed Root Vegetables (Carrots & Parsnips)
1 tablespoon Tahini
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1 clove Garlic
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
2 tablespoons Fresh Parsley
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Prepare the chicken by patting it dry. Season lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
Place the pistachios in a food processor and pulse until coarsely chopped. Press the chicken breast into the crushed pistachios to form an even crust on both sides.
Toss the chopped mixed root vegetables with olive oil, a pinch of salt, and any additional herbs you enjoy.
Arrange the chicken and vegetables on a baking sheet. Roast in the oven for about 20-25 minutes, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
While the chicken and vegetables are roasting, prepare the tahini drizzle by whisking together tahini, lemon juice, minced garlic, and a splash of water to achieve a smooth, pourable consistency. Adjust seasoning as needed.
Once cooked, plate the chicken with a serving of roasted vegetables, and drizzle the creamy tahini sauce over the top. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
