Super-easy chicken and glazed carrots

So, for two months, I was doing the Insanity workout and following the Insanity diet. Here's one of our favourite recipes, courtesy of Shaun T.

Ingredients (for 2 people):

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 tbsp. olive oil
2 tbsp. lemon juice
1 tsp. paprika

2 whole carrots, washed and peeled
2 tbsp. honey

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350'.
1. Mix olive oil, lemon juice and paprika together in a bowl.
2. Place chicken breasts on a baking sheet (I put them on aluminum foil in the pan).
3. Use a spoon to pour paprika mixture over chicken breasts and gently rub in (on both sides).
4. Place chicken in oven and let cook for 20 minutes (or until chicken is fully cooked).
5. While chicken is cooking, bring a pot of water to a boil. Chop carrots and boil in the water for ~15 minutes (or until carrots are soft -- when you can poke into them with a fork).
6. When carrots are done, remove from heat and stir in honey, coating the carrots.
7. Serve chicken and carrots, and enjoy!
