ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (6 oz each)
- 2 ripe pears, thinly sliced
- 4 medium russet potatoes, cubed
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped

steps
- 1.
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- 2.
In a small bowl, mix together honey, balsamic vinegar, rosemary, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- 3.
Place the chicken breasts on the prepared baking sheet and brush them with half of the honey-balsamic mixture. Reserve the other half of the mixture for later.
- 4.
In a separate bowl, toss the cubed potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them on the baking sheet next to the chicken.

Roast the chicken and potatoes for 20 minutes. Then, add the sliced pears to the baking sheet, drizzle them with the remaining honey-balsamic mixture, and toss gently to combine.

Return the baking sheet to the oven and continue roasting for another 15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through, the potatoes are golden and crispy, and the pears are tender and slightly caramelized.
- 7.
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. Serve the chicken with the roasted potatoes and pears.
