INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Chicken Breast
2 medium Pitted Medjool Dates
2 tablespoons chopped Almonds
1/2 cup chopped Carrots
1/2 cup chopped Parsnips
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic (minced)
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a food processor, blend the pitted dates, chopped almonds, and minced garlic until a coarse paste forms.
Pat the chicken breast dry with a paper towel, then season with salt and pepper on both sides.
Spread the date and nut paste evenly over the top of the chicken breast to form a crust.
Toss the chopped carrots and parsnips in a bowl with the olive oil, salt, and pepper until well coated.
Place the crusted chicken breast on a lightly greased baking sheet and arrange the vegetables around it in a single layer.
Roast in the oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F) and the vegetables are tender.
Remove from oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
