Ingredients

Chicken

  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 pinch ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • ½ cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • ¼ cup white wine
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons whole-grain mustard

Vegetables

  • 3 cups peeled and cubed butternut squash
  • 2 carrots, peeled and cut 1-inch pieces
  • 1 large parsnip, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 1 small sweet potato, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 1 small red onion, cut into 1-inch wedges
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons minced fresh rosemary
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • ¼ teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1
Place an 11×17-inch baking sheet in the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

Step 2
Combine butternut squash, carrots, parsnip, sweet potato, and red onion in a large bowl; add 2 tablespoons olive oil, rosemary, 1/2 teaspoon sea salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and stir to coat. Spread vegetable mixture in a single layer onto the warmed baking sheet from the oven.

Step 3
Roast vegetables in the preheated oven for 15 minutes; stir and continue roasting until tender, about 15 minutes more.

Step 4
Pound chicken to 1/2-inch thickness on a work surface; season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and ground black pepper to taste.

Step 5
Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat; cook chicken until no longer pink in the center, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to a bowl.

Step 6
Pour chicken broth and wine into the same skillet and bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off of the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon, about 2 minutes.

Step 7
Stir honey and mustard into wine mixture; add chicken and turn pieces until coated. Serve chicken alongside roasted vegetables.

Cook’s Note:

Though this is not a one-pan dinner, it is very easy to cook the chicken on top of the stove while the veggies roast away in the oven! Actually, any combination of root vegetables would work – use what you have. A simple green salad and bread, if you like, complete this meal.
