Description
A delightful dish combining savory whipped feta and sweet hot honey roasted carrots, served with grilled chicken.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 medium carrots, peeled and cut into sticks
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup hot honey
- 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
- 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- Fresh herbs for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Prepare the carrots by peeling and cutting them into sticks.
- In a bowl, toss the carrot sticks with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Arrange them on a baking sheet in a single layer and roast for about 25-30 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
- In another bowl, combine the crumbled feta cheese with Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and garlic powder. Mix until smooth and creamy to create the whipped feta. Adjust seasoning to taste.
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Grill them over medium-high heat for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F/75°C).
- Once the carrots have roasted, drizzle them generously with hot honey. Serve the grilled chicken topped with the creamy whipped feta alongside the roasted carrots. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
