in Recipes, Dinner, Meal Oven-baked chicken breast and radishes with thyme butter
Radishes grow below ground, but they are actually very low in carbs (below 3%). Also, they are too pretty not to eat! When you roast them, they get softer and milder in taste and pair perfectly with the cooked chicken breast and fragrant thyme garlic butter. This few-ingredient meal is truly an easy, winner dinner.
