Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Pat chicken breasts dry with paper towels, then season both sides with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper.
  2. Step 2: In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp honey, 2 tbsp soy sauce, and 3 minced garlic cloves until smooth.
  3. Step 3: Place carrots and zucchini in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Drizzle with 2 tbsp olive oil, sprinkle with 1 tsp dried thyme, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper, then toss to coat evenly.
  4. Step 4: Arrange seasoned chicken breasts on top of the vegetables. Brush each chicken piece generously with the honey-soy glaze mixture.
  5. Step 5: Roast for 22-25 minutes until chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) internally and vegetables are tender with golden edges, basting once halfway through with remaining glaze.
  6. Step 6: Let rest 5 minutes before serving to allow juices to redistribute.
