This Sheet Pan Garlic Ginger Chicken & Broccoli is a delicious and easy prepare ahead dish. It is a fantastic meal to serve bento-style, or you can prepare it in advance and have it for lunch for a few days.
To make this recipe, start by blending all of the sauce ingredients together until smooth. Place chicken, broccoli, and red pepper on a sheet pan and pour ½ a cup of the sauce over the chicken and a few tablespoons over the vegetables. Bake in the oven. While the broccoli and chicken cook, simmer the remaining sauce in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until it thickens. Drizzle the sauce over the finished chicken and broccoli. Top with sesame oil, sesame seeds, or scallions and serve in individual lunch or bento boxes.
