MAPLE GLAZED CHICKEN WITH ROASTED COUNTRY VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

• For the glaze: While the chicken is roasting, whisk together all the ingredients for the glaze in a pot over medium-high heat. Bring to a simmer and cook until thickened slightly. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• When the chicken is nearly cooked through, completely coat the outside with the glaze using a pastry brush. Pour any remaining glaze over the vegetables.

Remove the chicken from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes before serving.
