Provided by Claire Nolan

Categories     Lunch

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

½ sweet potato
½ lb brussels sprouts
1 carrot
½ head broccoli
1 ½ lb chicken breast
olive oil, to taste
2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped
2 tablespoons fresh thyme, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425˚F (220˚C).
  • Cut vegetables. Place each in a separate corner of a baking pan lined with parchment paper.
  • NOTE: Broccoli and Brussels sprouts cook faster, keep the cuts thicker for those. Sweet potato and carrots take more time - dice them, or cut them thinner.
  • Season veggies with olive oil, salt, pepper, rosemary, thyme, and garlic.
  • Season both sides of the chicken with olive oil, salt, pepper, and the remaining rosemary, thyme, and garlic over parchment paper.
  • Seal parchment paper to keep chicken moist, and place on the center of the baking pan.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes, until chicken is fully cooked and veggies are done to your liking.
  • This meal works great with brown rice, so feel free to add some to your meal prep as well.
  • Unwrap and slice the chicken.
  • Separate veggies into each tupperware with chicken.
  • NOTE: If using plastic tupperware, allow food to cool down first
  • Can be refrigerated up to 4 days.
