Ingredients
  

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1/2 cup pure maple syrup

1/4 cup Dijon mustard

3 tablespoons olive oil

2 teaspoons minced garlic

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

2 cups baby carrots

1 red bell pepper, sliced

1 zucchini, sliced

1 cup broccoli florets

Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    Prepare the Marinade: In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, Dijon mustard, olive oil, minced garlic, thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper until well combined. This will be your marinade.

      Marinate the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable bag or a shallow dish. Pour half of the marinade over the chicken, making sure each piece is coated evenly. Let it marinate for at least 20 minutes (or up to 2 hours if time allows) in the refrigerator.

        Prepare the Veggies: While the chicken marinates, prepare your vegetables. In a large mixing bowl, combine the baby carrots, bell pepper, zucchini, and broccoli. Drizzle with olive oil, and season lightly with salt, pepper, and a sprinkle of thyme.

          Assemble in the Pan: In a large baking sheet or roasting pan, lay out the marinated chicken breasts. Surround them with the prepared vegetables. Drizzle the remaining marinade over the veggies and chicken to ensure everything is coated.

            Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F or 74°C) and the veggies are tender.

              Serve: Remove from the oven, let it rest for a few minutes, and then garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve the chicken and veggies warm, drizzled with any remaining pan juices.
