Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 4 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 2 tbsp olive oil (divided)
- 4 medium carrots, sliced
- 2 tbsp honey
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prep the chicken: Rinse and pat dry the chicken breasts. In a bowl, mix garlic, oregano, thyme, salt, pepper, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Coat the chicken thoroughly and marinate for at least 15 minutes.
- Sauté the carrots: Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add sliced carrots and cook until golden brown and tender—about 10 minutes.
- Cook the chicken: Push the carrots to one side of the skillet and add the marinated chicken breasts. Sear each side for about 6-7 minutes until golden brown and fully cooked.
- Add honey glaze: Drizzle honey over both chicken and carrots during the last few minutes of cooking for a sweet caramelization.
