Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease your baking dish lightly with olive oil or non-stick spray.
  2. In a small bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper to make the marinade.
  3. Place the chicken breasts in a resealable bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring they are well-coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  4. Prepare the carrots by washing, peeling, and cutting them into sticks. Mix with honey, balsamic vinegar, and a pinch of salt.
  5. Arrange the marinated chicken in the greased baking dish and surround with the carrot sticks.
  6. Drizzle any leftover marinade over the chicken and carrots.
  7. Bake for 25–30 minutes, ensuring the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and the carrots are tender.
  8. Remove from the oven and allow the chicken to rest for about 5 minutes.
  9. Slice the chicken and arrange on plates with the roasted carrots.
  10. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
