Sweet Chili Roasted Chicken and Vegetables
This recipe features diced chicken breast roasted with a mix of broccoli, cauliflower, and carrots, all tossed in olive oil and sweet chili sauce. The roasting at high heat yields tender chicken pieces with crisp-tender vegetables coated in a combination of spice and sweetness from the chili sauce.
Ingredients
- 1.25 pounds chicken breast diced into bite-sized pieces, boneless skinless
- 3 cups broccoli florets
- 3 cups cauliflower florets
- 2 carrot sliced into 1/4-inch rounds on the bias, large
- 2 to 3 tablespoons olive oil
- ½ teaspoon black pepper or to taste, freshly ground
- 10- ounces sweet chili sauce or as desired; divided
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425F. If you have a convection oven, use it; if not a conventional oven is fine.
- Line a sheet pan with aluminum foil for easier cleanup and to it add the chicken, vegetables, evenly drizzle with olive oil, season with pepper, evenly drizzle with 3/4 of the chili sauce, toss with your hands to combine, and roast for about 14-15 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and vegetables are crisp-tender. If baking in a conventional oven, you may need to bake slightly longer, 17-18 minutes, but watch your food and not the clock.
- Evenly drizzle with the remaining chili sauce, if desired, and serve immediately. Recipe will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 4 months.
