INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast (142g)
1 Medjool Date (7g)
1 serving Carrot (75g)
1 serving Parsnip (75g)
1.5 tsp Olive Oil (7g)
1 tbsp Balsamic Vinegar (16g)
1 garlic clove
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a small saucepan, combine the chopped medjool date, balsamic vinegar, and minced garlic. Gently simmer over low heat until the date softens and the mixture thickens into a sticky glaze, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
Pat the chicken breast dry and season with salt and pepper on both sides. Brush lightly with half of the olive oil.
In a bowl, toss the chopped carrots and parsnips with the remaining olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Arrange the chicken on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Scatter the vegetables around the chicken.
Roast in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes. In the last 5 minutes of cooking, brush the chicken generously with the date glaze.
Once cooked through and the vegetables are tender with lightly caramelized edges, remove from the oven. Let the chicken rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
Drizzle any remaining glaze over the chicken and vegetables for an extra burst of flavor.
