Sheet Pan Honey Garlic Chicken & Vegetables

Main Stuff:

6 c broccoli florets, cut into 1-inch pieces

2 small or 1 large red onions, cut into 1-inch pieces

2 large bell peppers

1 c diced carrots

2 lbs chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces

Hot, cooked rice (optional)

Sauce:

6 Tbs olive oil

6 Tbs low sodium soy sauce

3 Tbs honey

2 tsp fresh lemon juice or red wine vinegar

8 cloves garlic, finely minced

1 tsp kosher salt

1/2 tsp dried oregano

1/2 tsp dried basil

Couple pinches of black pepper

Preheat oven to 400℉.  Scatter vegetables across a large rimmed baking sheet.  Pat the chicken pieces really dry with a paper towel, place the chicken pieces over the top of the veggies.  Whisk together all the sauce ingredients until well combined.  Drizzle the sauce over the chicken and veggies, toss lightly to combine.

Bake for 15-17 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and veggies are tender.  Give a toss to separate chicken pieces and distribute the vegetables and sauce.

Season to taste with an additional sprinkle of salt and pepper, if needed (important!).

Serve the chicken and veggies warm over hot, cooked rice.
