Ingredients
- 1.75 to 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast diced into bite-sized pieces
- 4 cups broccoli florets diced into large-ish bite-sized pieces
- 6 tablespoons olive oil divided
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 heaping teaspoon dried dill
- ¾ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon granulated sugar optional and to taste
- freshly grated Parmesan cheese optional for garnishing
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 475F (use convection if you have it), line a half-sheet pan with aluminum foil for easier cleanup if desired, add the chicken, broccoli (see Note 1 below about really crisp broccoli), evenly drizzle with 3 tablespoons olive oil, and season generously with salt and pepper, and toss with your hands to evenly coat, and roast for 8 minutes.
- While chicken and broccoli roasts, to a small bowl, add the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil, apple cider vinegar, dill, garlic, optional sugar, and stir to combine.
- After 8 minutes, remove the sheet pan from the oven, flip the chicken and broccoli to ensure even cooking, and evenly spoon the vinegar mixture over the top.
- Return pan to the oven and roast for an additional 7 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and broccoli is crisp-tender. This is a very hot oven and because all ovens, climate, pans, and the exact size of the pieces of food are going to vary, so will the exact cooking time. Watch your food and not the clock when determining if it’s done. Don’t overcook because the chicken will dry out and the broccoli will burn.
- Optionally garnish with Parmesan and serve immediately. Recipe is best fresh but will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 4 months, noting the texture of the broccoli will change and become softer.

Notes
- For those of us who prefer their broccoli to be more crisp than tender, then I recommend not to add it in the beginning with the chicken, and simply add it midway through. This ensures you surely will have plenty of crunch in your broccoli.
