Asian Chicken Sheet Pan Meal
Description
This sheet pan recipe involves chopping boneless, skinless chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and seasoning with salt and pepper. A sauce is prepared from tamari (or low sodium soy sauce), honey, fresh garlic, ginger, and chili paste. The chicken is combined with roughly chopped vegetables including yellow bell pepper, carrots, snap peas, and red onion and tossed in the sauce.
The mixture spreads evenly on a prepared baking sheet and cooks in a 400°F oven for 20 minutes in total, stirring halfway through, until the vegetables remain crisp but tender and the chicken is cooked through. This method keeps the chicken juicy and allows the vegetables to retain some crunch. The sauce coats all components creating well-balanced layers of flavor.
The cooked mixture is served over rice, which can be white, brown, or cauliflower rice depending on preference. This one-pan meal suits busy evenings due to minimal hands-on time and ease of assembly.
