  • 2 tablespoons orange zest
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • 1/4 cup flour or gluten-free flour
  • 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

For the Broccoli:

  • 3 cups broccoli florets
  • Extra virgin olive oil

  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 4 cloves garlic, grated
  • 1 tablespoon fresh grated ginger
  • 34 tablespoons chili paste (gochujang)
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch or flour

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 450°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease with oil.
  2. Prepare the Sheet Pan: On the baking sheet, combine the chicken, orange zest, black pepper, and flour. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat. Arrange the chicken on one side and the broccoli on the other side of the sheet.
  3. Bake: Bake for 15-20 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.

  5. Glaze and Bake: Remove the broccoli from the sheet pan. Pour the orange sauce over the chicken and bake for an additional 5 minutes until the sauce caramelizes.
  6. Serve: Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds. Serve the chicken and broccoli with the orange sauce over rice or as desired.
