Sheet Pan Peanut Chicken and Veggies
Description
This recipe begins by mixing chicken breasts with a marinade combining coconut milk, creamy peanut butter, low-sodium soy sauce, honey, rice wine vinegar, lime juice, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger. The chicken is placed on a cookie sheet with the marinade spooned on top. Separately, carrots and broccoli tossed with canola oil are added alongside. Baking at 375 degrees for 25-30 minutes cooks the chicken and vegetables through while the peanut sauce coats them, providing a rich, slightly sweet, and aromatic flavor.
The dish’s texture balances tender chicken with crisp-tender carrots and broccoli. The peanut sauce brings creaminess and depth without overpowering the natural vegetable sweetness. Using the sheet pan simplifies preparation and cleanup, making it practical for a weeknight meal.
Garnishing with fresh cilantro enhances freshness and adds herbal notes. The recipe suits those enjoying a stir-fry style flavor with the convenience of oven baking and a focus on peanut and coconut flavors.
