Cooking Steps

Prep veggies
1
  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 450˚F.
  • Wash and dry all produce.
  • Remove brown spots from potatoes, then cut into 1/4-inch rounds.
  • Halve Brussels sprouts (if larger, quarter them). 
  • Peel carrot. Cut into 1/4-inch rounds.
  • To a parchment-lined baking sheet, add potatoes, Brussels sprouts, carrots and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
  • Roast in the bottom of the oven for 22-26 min, stirring halfway through, until golden.  
Sear and roast chicken
2
  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with half the Cream Sauce Spice Blend, salt and pepper.
  • In a medium non-stick pan (use a large pan for 4 servings), heat 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil over medium-high. 
  • When hot, add chicken. (NOTE: Don't crowd the pan; cook chicken in 2 batches if needed.) Cook 1-2 min per side, until golden.
  • To an unlined baking sheet, transfer chicken. Roast in the middle of the oven for 8-12 min, until cooked through.** 
Finish prep
3
  • While veggies and chicken roast, zest, then juice half the lemon. Cut remaining into wedges.
  • Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
  • Roughly chop parsley.
  • To a small bowl, add cream, lemon zest, half the parsley, 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) lemon juice, 1/4 cup (1/3 cup) water and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar. Season with salt and pepper. Stir to mix.
  • When chicken is cooked, transfer to a plate to rest for 2-3 min.
Make creamy lemon-garlic sauce
4
  • Meanwhile, reheat the same pan over medium.
  • When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter and garlic. Cook for 30 sec, stirring often, until butter melts and garlic is fragrant.
  • Sprinkle remaining Cream Sauce Spice Blend over top. Stir to mix.
  • Add lemon-cream sauce mixture and any chicken resting juices. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 1-2 min, stirring often, until sauce has thickened slightly.  (Tip: If sauce reduces too quickly, add water 1 tbsp at a time)
Finish and serve
5
  • Stir remaining parsley into veggies.
  • Thinly slice chicken.
  • Divide veggies and chicken between plates.
  • Spoon creamy lemon-garlic sauce over chicken.
  • Squeeze a wedge of lemon over top, if desired.

If you've opted to get chicken thighs, cook in the same way the recipe instructs you to cook chicken breasts.
