  Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  Spread the carrots in a single layer on the baking sheet and roast for 20 to 25 minutes until they are tender and the edges are caramelized.

  While the carrots roast, season the chicken breast on both sides with the remaining sea salt and black pepper.

  Heat the remaining 0.5 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

  Place the chicken in the skillet and sear for 6 to 8 minutes per side until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

  Remove the chicken from the heat and let it rest for 3 minutes before slicing.
