High Protein Balsamic Chicken Meal Prep

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).

Whisk together all marinade ingredients. Add sliced chicken and marinate for at least 30 minutes (longer is better).

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread out Brussels sprouts and cubed sweet potatoes.

Drizzle veggies with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and roast for 25–30 minutes until tender and golden.

While veggies roast, sear or bake marinated chicken until cooked through and lightly caramelized.

Drizzle with 1 tbsp honey before serving, if desired.

Divide chicken, sweet potatoes, and Brussels sprouts into 4 containers.

Store in the fridge for up to 4 days.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Balsamic Reduction Magic ✨
Simmer your balsamic marinade with honey for 2-3 minutes before adding chicken to concentrate flavors and create a glossy glaze that caramelizes beautifully during cooking.
Butterfly Technique for Even Cooking 🔪
Slice chicken breasts horizontally to create thinner, uniform pieces that cook evenly in 12-15 minutes and absorb the marinade more effectively than thick cuts.
Roasting Temperature Synchronization 🕐
Roast Brussels sprouts and sweet potatoes at 425°F for 20 minutes before adding chicken at the same temperature, ensuring all components finish simultaneously for optimal meal prep.
Marinade Timing for Meal Prep 📦
Marinate chicken for 4-6 hours (or overnight) in the refrigerator to develop deep, complex flavors while the balsamic acid naturally tenderizes the protein without making it mushy.
Brussels Sprouts Caramelization Secret 🌟
Toss Brussels sprouts in a small amount of the balsamic marinade and ensure they're cut flat-side down on the pan to achieve crispy, caramelized exteriors that complement the chicken perfectly.
