  2. Preheat the oven to 220 C . Line a pan with a parchment paper then place the chicken in the pan and roast for 15 minutes then flip the chicken and bake for extra 10 minutes until chicken is cooked.

  3. To roast the tomatoes, toss the tomatoes with 1 tbsp vegetable oil and 1 tbsp honey on a sheet pan. Spread them out and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast for 15 to 20 minutes, until the tomatoes are soft and caramelized.

  4. In a pan over medium heat, add 1 tbsp of butter and 1 teaspoon of flour. Stir the flour for 15 seconds until light golden and then add 1 cup of milk while whisking so the flour doesn't clump. Cook until sauce is slightly thick then add the roasted cherry tomatoes and a sprinkle of dried rosemary. Season with salt to taste then remove from heat.

  5. Add the sauce on top of the chicken breasts. Serve
