Ingredients:
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a small bowl, combine the Italian salad dressing, balsamic vinegar, honey, and red pepper flakes. Whisk until well blended.
Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring it is well coated. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes (or up to 1 hour if you have the time).
While the chicken is marinating, trim the asparagus, halve the cherry tomatoes, and slice the carrots.
In a large, oven-proof skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade (reserving the marinade) and add the chicken breasts to the skillet. Sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until browned (the chicken will not be fully cooked at this point).
Add the asparagus, cherry tomatoes, and sliced carrots to the skillet, surrounding the chicken. Pour the reserved marinade over the vegetables and chicken.
Sprinkle a dash of salt and black pepper over the chicken and vegetables.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.
Remove the skillet from the oven, let it rest for a couple of minutes, then slice the chicken breasts. Serve the sliced chicken with the roasted vegetables on the side, drizzling any remaining balsamic sauce from the skillet over the top.
Enjoy your delicious and healthy one-pan balsamic chicken and veggies with honey and red pepper!
Tips:
- Cut the vegetables uniformly to ensure even cooking.
- Marinate the chicken in the balsamic dressing for an hour before cooking for even more flavor.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- Feel free to substitute or add other vegetables such as bell peppers, zucchini, or mushrooms.
- Line the baking tray with aluminum foil or parchment paper for easier cleanup.
In just one pan, you’ve created a flavorful and nutritious meal that’s sure to be a hit at the dinner table. The combination of balsamic vinegar, honey, and a hint of red pepper adds a delightful touch to this already appetizing dish. Enjoy your One-Pan Balsamic Chicken and Veggies with your family and friends!
