INGREDIENTS

5 oz Chicken breast

1.5 cups Carrots

0.75 tbsp Maple syrup

0.25 oz Pecans

0.5 tbsp Olive oil

0.25 tsp Sea salt

0.25 tsp Black pepper

0.5 tsp Dried thyme

1 tsp Balsamic vinegar

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a large rimmed 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

  Place the chicken breast and the carrot chunks on the prepared baking sheet.

• 4

  In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, maple syrup, balsamic vinegar, sea salt, black pepper, and dried thyme.

• 5

  Drizzle the maple mixture over the chicken and carrots, using your hands or a spatula to toss the carrots until they are thoroughly coated.

• 6

  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.

• 7

  Scatter the pecans onto the baking sheet during the final 5 minutes of roasting to allow them to become fragrant and toasted.

• 8

  Remove from the oven, slice the chicken into strips, and serve immediately alongside the glazed carrots and pecans.
