Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 425°F. In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp honey, 3 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, 1 tsp sesame oil, 3 cloves minced garlic, and 1 tsp grated fresh ginger until well combined.
Step 2: Place 1.5 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs and 4 cups broccoli florets on a large rimmed sheet pan. Drizzle 2 tbsp olive oil over everything, sprinkle 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper, then pour the honey-sesame mixture evenly over the chicken and broccoli. Toss broccoli gently to coat but leave chicken pieces spaced out.
Step 3: Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping broccoli halfway through, until chicken is cooked through and broccoli edges are slightly caramelized. Remove from oven and sprinkle 1 tbsp sesame seeds over the top before serving.
