Honey-Mustard Chicken & Carrots

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Peel & cut the carrots in half lengthwise, then into slices.

Step 2

Combine the honey & mustard in a small bowl.

Step 3

Add minced or crushed garlic, salt, pepper & a drizzle of oil to the same bowl. Whisk to combine.

Step 4

Grease an oven-proof baking dish. Then add the chicken.

Step 5

Brush the chicken with half of the honey-mustard mixture.

Step 6

Arrange the carrot slices around the chicken, drizzling them with oil. Sprinkle thyme over everything.

Step 7

Season with salt & pepper. Pour a bit of water into the perimeter of the dish. Bake for about 35-40 min at 400°F. Halfway through, baste the chicken with the remaining honey-mustard sauce. Remove from the oven when the chicken is cooked through (165°F internal temp) & the carrots are tender.

Step 8

Garnish with extra thyme, if desired. Serve & enjoy!
