Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Peel and slice the carrots into 1/2-inch thick rounds.
On a parchment-lined baking sheet, toss the carrots with 0.5 tablespoons of olive oil, the maple syrup, half of the sea salt, and the fresh thyme leaves.
Season the chicken breast evenly with the garlic powder, the remaining sea salt, and the black pepper.
Heat the remaining 0.5 tablespoons of olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
Sear the chicken for 3 minutes on each side until golden brown, then remove the skillet from the heat.
Place both the carrot baking sheet and the chicken skillet into the oven.
Roast for 15-18 minutes, or until the carrots are tender and the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving alongside the glazed carrots.
