INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 Medjool Date
1 medium Carrot
1 small Parsnip
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
1 tbsp Balsamic Vinegar
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Prepare the chicken by patting it dry and seasoning lightly with salt and pepper.
In a small saucepan, combine the chopped Medjool date, balsamic vinegar, and minced garlic. Simmer over low heat until the date softens and the sauce slightly thickens to form a glaze.
Brush the chicken breast with the sticky date glaze, reserving a little glaze for finishing later.
Slice the carrot and parsnip into even sticks. Toss them in a bowl with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Spread the vegetables on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until they start to become tender and golden.
While vegetables roast, sear the glazed chicken in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes per side to get a nice caramelized exterior, then finish cooking in the oven for about 10-12 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Once both chicken and vegetables are done, plate them together and drizzle any remaining date glaze over the chicken for an extra burst of flavor.
