Maple-Glazed Roasted Carrots with Pecans and Chicken
Pan-seared chicken breast paired with oven-roasted carrots glazed in a silky maple-cinnamon reduction and topped with crunchy toasted pecans.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
1 cup carrots
2 tsp maple syrup
0.25 oz pecans
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp ground cinnamon
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Peel and slice the carrots into 1-inch diagonal pieces, then toss them in a bowl with 0.5 tbsp of olive oil, the cinnamon, and half of the salt and pepper.
Spread the carrots in a single layer on the baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes until they begin to soften.
While the carrots roast, season the chicken breast with the remaining salt and pepper.
Heat the remaining 0.5 tbsp of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 5-7 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
Remove the carrots from the oven, drizzle with maple syrup, and sprinkle the chopped pecans over the top.
Return the carrots to the oven for an additional 5 minutes until the glaze is bubbly and the pecans are fragrant.
Plate the juicy seared chicken alongside the warm, glazed carrots and serve immediately.
