5.5 oz chicken breast

1 cup sweet potato

0.5 cup carrots

1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

2 cloves garlic

1 tsp fresh rosemary

1 tsp fresh thyme

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

PREPARATION

• 1

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

• 2

  Peel the sweet potato and carrots, then dice them into uniform 1-inch cubes to ensure even cooking.

• 3

  Mince the garlic cloves and finely chop the fresh rosemary and thyme leaves.

• 4

  In a large mixing bowl, toss the diced sweet potatoes and carrots with half of the olive oil, half of the minced garlic, and half of the fresh herbs.

• 5

  Place the chicken breast on the prepared baking sheet and rub with the remaining olive oil, garlic, herbs, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 6

  Arrange the seasoned root vegetables in a single layer around the chicken breast on the baking sheet.

• 7

  Roast in the center of the oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the vegetables are tender and golden brown.

• 8

  Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing to keep it juicy.

• 9

  Serve the sliced chicken alongside the caramelized root vegetables, drizzling any remaining pan juices over the top.
