INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Chicken Breast
1/2 medium Sweet Potato (cubed)
1 medium Carrot (cut into sticks or rounds)
2 Medjool Dates
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper (to taste)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Cube the sweet potato and chop the carrot into sticks or rounds. Toss the vegetables in a bowl with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Spread the vegetables evenly on a baking sheet and place in the oven. Roast for about 20-25 minutes until tender.
Meanwhile, season the chicken breast with a pinch of salt and pepper.
In a small bowl or using a food processor, blend the medjool dates with one or two teaspoons of warm water until a smooth, sticky glaze forms.
Heat a skillet on medium-high heat and sear the chicken breast for about 2-3 minutes on each side to obtain a golden exterior.
Brush the chicken generously with the date glaze, then transfer it to the oven (or add to the baking sheet with the vegetables in the last 15 minutes) and bake until the chicken is cooked through, about 15 minutes.
Once done, plate the glazed chicken alongside the roasted sweet potatoes and carrots. Drizzle any extra glaze from the pan over the chicken for added flavor.
