Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat chicken breasts dry, then season both sides with 1/4 tsp salt and 1/8 tsp black pepper.
  2. Step 2: Whisk together 2 tbsp coconut aminos, 1 tbsp grated ginger, 1 minced garlic clove, and 1 tsp sesame oil in a small bowl until smooth.
  3. Step 3: Heat 1 tbsp avocado oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Sear chicken for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown.
  4. Step 4: Pour glaze mixture over chicken, then arrange 1/2 cup broccoli florets around the chicken. Transfer skillet to oven and bake for 15-18 minutes, until chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) internally and broccoli is tender-crisp.
  5. Step 5: Remove from oven, sprinkle with 1 tsp sesame seeds, and let rest 5 minutes before serving.
