Ingredients

• 4 pieces Chicken breasts
• 4 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 4 cloves Garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 cups Baby potatoes, halved
• 1.5 cups Carrots, sliced into thin rounds
• 1 cup Green beans, trimmed
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

In a small bowl, whisk together Dijon mustard, minced garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, honey, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

Step 3

Lay out four large sheets of aluminum foil (approximately 12 inches by 16 inches) on a flat surface.

Step 4

Place one chicken breast in the center of each foil sheet.

Step 5

Brush each chicken breast generously with the Dijon-garlic marinade, ensuring it is evenly coated.

Step 6

In a separate mixing bowl, toss the baby potatoes, carrots, and green beans with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper.

Step 7

Divide the vegetable mixture evenly between the four foil packets, arranging them around the chicken breasts.

Step 8

Fold the edges of the foil up and over the chicken and vegetables to create sealed packets. Make sure the packets are tightly closed to trap in the steam and juices during cooking.

Step 9

Place the foil packets onto a baking sheet and transfer to the preheated oven.

Step 10

Bake for 30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature reaches 165°F/74°C) and the vegetables are tender.

Step 11

Carefully open the packets to release the steam before serving. Sprinkle with fresh parsley, if desired, for garnish.

Step 12

Serve the chicken and vegetables directly from the foil packets or transfer them to plates for a more elegant presentation. Enjoy!
