INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 lemon
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tsp fresh thyme
1/2 medium red bell pepper
1/2 medium zucchini
1/4 cup diced eggplant
1 tsp olive oil
4 tbsp roasted red pepper hummus
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a small bowl, combine the juice of 1/2 lemon, minced garlic, and chopped fresh thyme. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish and coat evenly with the lemon herb marinade. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
While the chicken marinates, prepare the vegetables: slice the red bell pepper, zucchini, and dice the eggplant. Toss them gently with olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet.
Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until they are tender and slightly caramelized, stirring halfway through.
Meanwhile, cook the marinated chicken in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until the interior reaches an appropriate temperature and the exterior is golden brown.
Plate the chicken alongside the roasted vegetables and add the creamy roasted red pepper hummus on the side as a vibrant dip or spread.
Finish with an optional drizzle of extra lemon juice or a sprinkle of additional fresh thyme for an extra burst of flavor before serving.
