Ingredients
Scale
- 3–4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 3 sprigs fresh rosemary (or 1 tbsp dried)
- 1 lb Brussels sprouts
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Prepare the Chicken: Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. Season generously with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Mix the Rosemary Oil: In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil and chopped rosemary until well combined.
- Prep the Brussels Sprouts: Trim any brown ends off the Brussels sprouts, then slice them in half. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sprouts with a drizzle of olive oil and some salt. Toss until coated.
- Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the seasoned chicken breasts on one side of the baking sheet and nestle the Brussels sprouts next to them.
- Roast in the Oven: Roast for about 25-30 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and is golden brown. For extra crispiness, broil for an additional few minutes at the end.
- Serve: Transfer to plates and drizzle any leftover rosemary oil over everything before serving.
