Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F.
- In a medium size mixing bowl, toss together the chicken, 1 tablespoon olive oil and 2 tablespoons Turkish Spice Blend. Set aside.
- If using whole broccoli and cauliflower, cut into florets. Keep the pieces as similar in size as possible, for even roasting. Toss broccoli, cauliflower, sprouts, and cut lemons in a large mixing bowl with olive oil and 2 tablespoons of Turkish Spice Blend. Place on a lined (foil) roasting pan.
- Roast the vegetables for 20 minutes, then either add the chicken to the sheet pan and continue roasting, or start to saute the chicken tenders in pan on the stove.
- If sauteing, add chicken to a medium skillet over medium heat. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side, depending on size. Vegetables now should have roasted for a total of 30 minutes.
- Remove vegetables (or vegetables and chicken) from oven. Toss the cooked chicken and half the basil with the vegetables and lemon. Transfer onto a platter. Squeeze some of the roasted lemon juice over and top with sesame seeds and remaining chopped basil. Season to taste with kosher salt and serve.
Notes
- Sheet pan chicken and vegetables option:
- Rather than having sauteed chicken tenders, you can cook the vegetables and chicken together on sheet pan in the oven.
- Follow directions above for roasting the vegetables.
- After 20 minutes of cook time, remove pan from oven and add seasoned chicken tenders to the pan with vegetables.
- Continue cooking for another 10-15 minutes, or until vegetables are caramelized and chicken tenders are no longer pink in the center.
