Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 1 bell pepper chopped
  • 1 cup snap peas
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup sweet chili sauce Mae Ploy
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha optional
  • 1 garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds optional

Equipment

  • Whisk
  • Oven
  • Chef's Knife
  • Baking Sheet

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F. This ensures that your chicken and veggies bake evenly and come out perfectly cooked.
  2. Prepare the sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sweet chili sauce, sriracha (if using), minced garlic, cornstarch, and sesame seeds. Make sure it's well combined; this will be the flavor base for your dish!
  3. Spread the cut chicken pieces, broccoli, bell pepper, and snap peas evenly on a baking sheet. It’s best to space them out to ensure they roast nicely.
  4. Drizzle the prepared sauce over the chicken and veggies. Use tongs to toss everything together, making sure every piece is coated in that delicious sauce.
  5. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 20 minutes. You’re looking for the chicken to be cooked through and the veggies to be tender but still vibrant.
  6. Halfway through baking, give the mixture a stir. This ensures that everything gets an even amount of heat and sauce.
  7. Once done, remove from the oven and let it rest for a couple of minutes. This allows the flavors to settle.
  8. When ready to serve, divide the mixture into meal prep containers if you’re storing it for later, or serve it hot with a side of brown rice or noodles.
  9. Enjoy your Baked Sweet Chili Chicken Veggies warm, and watch as everyone enjoys this flavorful feast!
