I love easy sheet pan dinners. Throw it all on a foil-line pan and you don't even have to clean it! This Maple Dijon Balsamic Chicken Butternut Squash, Green Beans Fennel worked really well as a combination of flavors.

Prep: 15 mins
Cook: 30 mins
Yields: 4 Servings

Ingredients

12 ounces butternut squash, cut 1-inch-long chunks

8 ounces green beans, trimmed

1 fennel bulb, sliced

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

2 tablespoons maple syrup

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

3 cloves garlic, minced

½ teaspoon kosher salt

½ teaspoon black pepper

½ teaspoon dried thyme

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, pounded to ½-inch thickness

1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

3 tablespoons Italian parsley, chopped

Directions

1Preheat the oven to 400° F.

2Lightly coat a large foil-lined baking sheet with nonstick spray. Place the squash, green beans, and fennel on the baking sheet.

3In a small bowl or measuring cup with a spout, whisk together the olive oil, maple syrup, mustard, garlic, salt, pepper, and thyme. Drizzle about 3 tablespoons over the vegetables, reserving the rest. Toss to coat with the mixture.

4Add the balsamic vinegar to the reserved olive oil/maple syrup mixture and whisk to combine and dredge the chicken breasts in the sauce.

5Arrange the chicken on top of the vegetables.

6Roast until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165° F, about 20-30 minutes, depending on the size of your chicken breasts. Sprinkle with fresh parsley.
