Before starting, preheat the oven to 425 °F. Wash and dry all produce. Garlic Guide for Step 2 (dbl for 4 ppl): 1/4 tsp mild, 1/2 tsp medium and 1 tsp extra! Peel, then cut half the onion (whole onion for 4 ppl) into 1/4-inch pieces. Heat a medium pot over medium heat. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then rice and onions. Cook, stirring often, until onions soften, 2-3 min. Add broth concentrate and 1 1/4 cups water (dbl for 4 ppl). Bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to low. Cover and cook until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 12-14 min. Remove the pot from heat. Set aside, still covered.
Meanwhile, peel, then halve carrots lengthwise, then cut into 1/2-inch half-moons. Zest, then juice lemon. Roughly chop parsley. Peel, then mince or grate garlic. Pat chicken dry with paper towels, then season with salt and pepper. Stir together mayo, half the lemon zest and 1/4 tsp garlic in a small bowl. (NOTE: Reference garlic guide.) Reserve 1 1/2 tbsp lemon mayo (dbl for 4 ppl) in a large bowl.
Add breadcrumbs to a shallow dish. Add chicken to the large bowl with reserved lemon mayo, then toss to coat. Working with one chicken breast at a time, press both sides into breadcrumbs to coat completely. Carefully shake off any excess breadcrumbs. Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add 1 tbsp oil, then breaded chicken. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, cook chicken in batches, using 1 tbsp oil per batch.) Pan-fry until golden-brown, 1-2 min per side.
Arrange breaded chicken on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Roast in the middle of the oven until cooked through, 12-14 min.** Meanwhile, wipe the same pan clean, then heat over medium-high.
When the pan is hot, add carrots, honey, 1/4 cup water and 1 tbsp butter (dbl both for 4 ppl). Simmer, stirring occasionally, until carrots are tender and liquid is absorbed, 9-10 min. Remove the pan from heat. Add half the parsley and 1 tsp lemon juice (dbl for 4 ppl). Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine.
Fluff rice with a fork. Season with salt, then stir in remaining parsley and remaining lemon zest.Divide rice, chicken and honey-parsley carrots between plates. Serve lemon mayo on the side for dipping.
