INGREDIENTS

6 oz chicken breast

1.5 cup carrots

1 tbsp maple syrup

1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

1 tsp fresh thyme

1 tsp apple cider vinegar

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

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 thick diagonal rounds to ensure even cooking.

• 3

  In a small glass bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, extra virgin olive oil, apple cider vinegar, fresh thyme, sea salt, and black pepper until well combined.

• 4

  Place the chicken breast and sliced carrots on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are spread out in a single layer.

• 5

  Drizzle the maple-thyme mixture over the chicken and carrots, using a brush or clean hands to coat every piece thoroughly.

• 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 tender and slightly caramelized.

• 7

  Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing to keep the juices locked in.

• 8

  Serve the sliced chicken alongside the glazed carrots, drizzling any remaining pan juices over the top for extra flavor.
