INGREDIENTS

5 oz chicken breast

2 cups broccoli florets

0.25 cup cooked brown rice

0.25 cup fresh orange juice

1 tbsp tamari

1 tbsp rice vinegar

1 tsp honey

1 tsp toasted sesame oil

1 tsp arrowroot starch

1 tsp fresh ginger

1 clove garlic

0.25 tsp red pepper flakes

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

PREPARATION

• 1

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

• 2

  Cut the chicken breast into one-inch cubes and season them evenly with sea salt and black pepper.

• 3

  In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the fresh orange juice, tamari, rice vinegar, honey, toasted sesame oil, arrowroot starch, grated fresh ginger, minced garlic, and red pepper flakes.

• 4

  Place the chicken cubes and broccoli florets on the prepared baking sheet, then pour half of the orange sauce over the top and toss until everything is well coated.

• 5

  Spread the chicken and broccoli into a single layer and bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the broccoli edges are slightly charred.

• 6

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

• 7

  Remove the baking sheet from the oven, drizzle the thickened glaze over the chicken and broccoli, and serve immediately over the cooked brown rice.
