Description

A vibrant, nutrient-dense sheet pan meal that brings Thai-inspired flavors into your home kitchen. This wholesome bowl combines tender roasted sweet potatoes, crispy broccoli, chickpeas, and juicy chicken breast, all pulled together by a zesty, creamy homemade peanut sauce. Perfect for busy weeknights, it offers a harmonious balance of sweet, savory, and nutty notes while keeping cleanup minimal and your energy high.


Ingredients

3 teaspoons avocado oil, divided
1 medium sweet potato, peeled and cubed to 1/2-inch pieces
3 cups fresh broccoli florets
1 15-ounce can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1 lb raw chicken breast, cubed into 2-inch pieces
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1/3 cup dry roasted peanuts
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
1/3 cup natural peanut butter
1/4 cup coconut aminos
3 tablespoons lime juice
2 teaspoons rice vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger


Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place the cubed sweet potato, broccoli florets, chickpeas, and chicken breast on the baking sheet.
Drizzle with 2 teaspoons of avocado oil, season with salt and pepper, and toss until evenly coated.
Spread into a single layer and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and vegetables are tender.
While roasting, whisk together the peanut butter, coconut aminos, lime juice, rice vinegar, ginger, and the remaining 1 teaspoon of avocado oil in a small bowl until smooth (add a splash of warm water if needed to thin).
Drizzle the peanut sauce over the sheet pan contents, toss lightly, and garnish with roasted peanuts and fresh cilantro before serving.
