Caramelized Maple-Glazed Roasted Carrots with Pan-Seared Chicken
Tender chicken breast pan-seared until golden and served alongside oven-roasted carrots coated in a sticky maple glaze for a sweet and savory finish.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
1.5 cups carrots
1 tbsp maple syrup
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp fresh thyme
1 tsp apple cider vinegar
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel the carrots and slice them into 1/2-inch diagonal rounds to maximize surface area for caramelization.
Toss the carrots on the baking sheet with 0.5 tbsp of olive oil, half the sea salt, and half the black pepper.
Roast the carrots for 15 minutes, then remove from the oven, drizzle with maple syrup, and toss to coat.
Return carrots to the oven for another 10-12 minutes until they are tender and the glaze is sticky and bubbling.
While carrots roast, season the chicken breast with the remaining salt and pepper.
Heat the remaining 0.5 tbsp of olive oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Remove carrots from the oven, drizzle with apple cider vinegar to brighten the flavors, and garnish with fresh thyme before serving alongside the chicken.
