Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 1/2 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts pounded thin
  • 2 TBSP olive oil divided
  • 1/2 tsp coarse kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp coarsely ground black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 cups broccoli crowns
  • 1 cup Easy Teriyaki Stir Fry Sauce divided
  • To serve: white rice 1/4 cup (60 g) thinly sliced California prunes, and sesame seeds, optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (205C) and spread 1/2 tablespoon olive oil over the surface of the pan.
  • Add the flattened chicken breasts to the sheet pan. Pour another 1/2 tablespoon olive over the chicken breasts, then season both sides with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Pour 1/3 cup (80 ml) Easy Teriyaki Stir Fry Sauce over the seasoned chicken, turn to coat completely then bake for 6 minutes.
  • After the initial cook time, remove the sheet pan from the oven and push the chicken to one side. Add the broccoli crowns to the sheet pan and pour the remaining tablespoon olive oil over the top along with an additional 1/3 cup (80 ml) Easy Teriyaki Stir Fry Sauce. Toss to coat and return to the oven for another 15 minutes or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (75C) and the broccoli is tender with a slight char. Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes then slice before serving.
  • To serve, top bowls of steamed rice with the sliced cooked chicken, broccoli crowns, and pan juices. Spoon over a tablespoon or more of the remaining Easy Teriyaki Stir Fry Sauce and serve immediately with thinly sliced California prunes. Sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired.

Notes

Store any leftovers in an airtight container.
