INGREDIENTS

6 oz chicken breast

1 cup carrots

1 tbsp maple syrup

1 tbsp olive oil

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 tsp fresh thyme

0.5 tsp garlic powder

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

• 2

  Peel the carrots and slice them into 1-inch diagonal chunks to ensure even roasting.

• 3

  In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, maple syrup, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper until emulsified.

• 4

  Place the chicken breast and sliced carrots onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.

• 5

  Brush half of the maple-herb glaze over the chicken breast and toss the carrots in the remaining glaze until they are thoroughly coated.

• 6

  Strip the fresh thyme leaves from the stems and sprinkle them evenly over the chicken and carrots.

• 7

  Roast in the center of the oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the carrots are fork-tender with caramelized edges.

• 8

  Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing to keep it juicy, then serve alongside the glazed carrots.
