INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 medium Carrot
1 medium Parsnip
1 portion Red Onion (approx 1/4 of a large onion)
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Balsamic Vinegar
Salt and Pepper to taste
2 sprigs Fresh Thyme (optional)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Prepare the vegetables by peeling the carrot and parsnip, then cut them into uniform sticks. Slice the red onion into wedges.
In a bowl, toss the vegetables with olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper. Optionally add thyme leaves for extra aroma.
Spread the vegetables on a baking sheet in a single layer and roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
While the vegetables roast, season the chicken breast with salt and pepper on both sides.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for about 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown.
Reduce heat to medium-low, add the balsamic vinegar to the skillet, and let it simmer to glaze the chicken, turning to coat evenly for another 2-3 minutes.
Plate the glazed chicken alongside the roasted vegetables and drizzle any remaining pan sauce over the top.
Serve immediately and enjoy your balanced, nutrient-rich meal.
