Thyme Lemon Chicken with Roasted Vegetables
Method
Prepare the Chicken: In a bowl, mix 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, 1 tbsp lemon juice, fresh thyme, salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Coat the chicken breasts in the marinade and let them sit for 10 minutes to infuse the flavours.
Roast the Vegetables: Preheat the oven to 200°C (180°C fan/Gas Mark 6). Toss the diced carrots and courgettes with olive oil, salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Spread them on a baking tray and roast for 20 minutes, turning halfway through, until tender and caramelised.
Grill the Chicken: Heat a grill or griddle pan over a medium heat. Grill the chicken for 6–8 minutes per side until cooked through (internal temperature: 75°C).
Serve: Rest the grilled chicken for 5 minutes to retain its juices. Serve alongside the roasted vegetables for a balanced, flavourful meal.
