INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast (142g)
1 Medjool Date (24g)
1 cup cubed Sweet Potato (130g)
1 cup Green Beans (125g)
1/2 teaspoon Olive Oil (2.3g)
1 tablespoon Soy Sauce (16g)
1 clove Garlic (3g)
1 teaspoon grated Ginger (2g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a small saucepan, combine the medjool date (pitted and roughly mashed), soy sauce, minced garlic, and grated ginger over low heat. Stir until the date forms a smooth, sticky glaze, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat.
Place the cubed sweet potatoes and green beans in a mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, season lightly with salt and pepper if desired, and toss to coat evenly.
Spread the sweet potatoes and green beans on a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast them in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until tender and slightly caramelized, stirring halfway through.
While the vegetables roast, season the chicken breast with a pinch of salt and pepper. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken breast for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and golden.
During the last minute of cooking, brush the sticky date glaze generously over the chicken in the skillet, allowing it to caramelize slightly.
Plate the glazed chicken with a side of roasted sweet potatoes and green beans, and drizzle any remaining glaze over the top for extra flavor.
