INGREDIENTS

5 oz chicken breast

2 cup broccoli florets

0.25 cup fresh orange juice

1 tbsp tamari

1 tsp honey

1 tsp rice vinegar

1 tsp arrowroot powder

1 clove garlic

1 tsp fresh ginger

0.5 tsp sesame oil

0.5 cup cooked brown rice

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 tsp sesame seeds

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat oven to 400°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

• 2

  Cut the chicken breast into one-inch bite-sized pieces and season evenly with sea salt and black pepper.

• 3

  In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the fresh orange juice, tamari, honey, rice vinegar, arrowroot powder, minced garlic, grated ginger, and sesame oil until smooth.

• 4

  Arrange the chicken pieces and broccoli florets in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.

• 5

  Pour half of the orange sauce over the chicken and broccoli, tossing gently to ensure every piece is well-coated.

• 6

  Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the broccoli is tender-crisp.

• 7

  While the chicken bakes, pour the remaining sauce into a small saucepan and simmer over medium heat for 3-5 minutes until it thickens into a glossy glaze.

• 8

  Drizzle the thickened sauce over the baked chicken and broccoli, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and serve immediately over the warm cooked brown rice.
