Equipment
- Sheet pan
Ingredients
- 1½ pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs (or chicken breast), cut into larger bite-size pieces
- 3 cups broccoli florets
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar (or honey)
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger (optional)
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar (or mirin)
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil (optional)
Optional garnish:
- Green onions
- Sesame seeds
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F.
- In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, rice vinegar, and sesame oil.
- Toss the chicken with half of the sauce and marinate for 10–15 minutes. Reserve the remaining sauce.
- Add the chicken and broccoli to a large sheet pan in a single layer. Discard excess marinade.
- Bake for 10–12 minutes. Toss the chicken and broccoli, then pour the remaining sauce over everything.
- Bake for another 8–10 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and the broccoli is tender.
- Optional: Broil for 2–3 minutes for extra caramelization.
- Serve over rice and top with green onions and sesame seeds if desired.
Notes
- Cut the chicken into slightly larger pieces so it stays juicy while the broccoli cooks.
- Chicken thighs stay more tender, but chicken breast works too.
- If your broccoli cooks faster than the chicken, remove it early or push it to the edges of the pan.
- Broiling at the end helps caramelize the sauce and gives the chicken more color.
- Great for meal prep and leftovers. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
