4. 4

7. 7

   Place one clove and two sprigs of thyme under skin of each breast and fold skin back over.

8. 8

   Place breasts on the sheet pan with vegetables (clearing a space so the chicken is not covering any vegetables.)

9. 9

   Brush each breast generously with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

10. 10

    Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, depending on size of breasts, until chicken is cooked and skin is browned.

11. 11

    Use a spatula to toss vegetables twice as they cook.

12. 12

    If chicken skin isnt browned enough, put it under broiler for 2 minutes (be careful not to let it burn!)

13. 13

    Serve hot.
