Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 chicken breasts
  • 2 cups baby carrots
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp dried rosemary
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Equipment

  • Baking dish
  • Mixing bowl
  • Meat thermometer

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Grab a mixing bowl and combine the olive oil, minced garlic, dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and pepper. Stir this until it smells fragrant.
  2. Place the chicken breasts in a baking dish. Rub the garlic herb mixture all over the meat. Make sure to get the sides so every bite has flavor.
  3. Toss the baby carrots around the chicken in the same dish. A common mistake is crowding the pan, so spread them out in an even layer.
  4. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes. The chicken is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F on a meat thermometer and the juices run clear. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

Let the leftovers cool completely before putting them in an airtight container. You can store this chicken and carrots in the fridge for up to three days. It also freezes well for up to one month.
