Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 450°F and position racks in the middle and upper thirds. Wash and dry all produce. Peel and mince the ginger until you have 2 tablespoons. Trim and thinly slice the scallions, separating the white and green parts. Slice sweet potatoes into ¼-inch-thick rounds. Cut broccoli florets into bite-sized pieces.
2. On a baking sheet, toss broccoli with a drizzle of oil and season with salt and pepper. On a second baking sheet, toss sweet potatoes with a drizzle of oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast sweet potatoes on the upper rack and broccoli on the middle rack until tender, 20-25 minutes, flipping the sweet potatoes and tossing the broccoli with minced ginger halfway through.
3. While vegetables roast, heat a drizzle of oil in a medium pan over medium-high heat. Pat chicken dry with paper towels and season all over with salt and pepper. Cook until golden and cooked through, 4-7 minutes per side. If chicken browns too quickly before it’s done, transfer it to the broccoli baking sheet and roast for up to 5 minutes.
4. In a small bowl, stir together hoisin sauce, sriracha, honey and 2 tablespoons water. Set aside.
5. After the vegetables have roasted for 10-12 minutes, remove both sheets from the oven. Flip sweet potatoes and return to oven. Toss broccoli with half the minced ginger and a drizzle of oil, then return to oven. Continue roasting until both are tender, 10-15 minutes more.
6. Heat a drizzle of oil in the same pan used for chicken over medium-high heat. Add scallion whites and remaining minced ginger. Cook, stirring, until softened and fragrant, 2-3 minutes. Pour in the hoisin mixture and bring to a gentle simmer. Season with salt and pepper. Return chicken to the pan and turn to coat in the glaze. Remove from heat.
7. Divide chicken among plates. Drizzle with any remaining glaze from the pan and sprinkle with sesame seeds and scallion greens. Serve alongside the roasted sweet potatoes and broccoli.

Recipe Tips

FAQ

Can I use chicken thighs instead of breasts?

Yes, boneless skinless chicken thighs work well. Adjust cooking time as needed until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F.

Can I make this dish ahead of time?

The components can be prepared in advance. Roast the vegetables and cook the chicken, then store separately. Reheat gently before serving and add the glaze just before serving.

Is there a substitute for hoisin sauce?

You can use a mixture of soy sauce, peanut butter and a touch of honey or molasses as a substitute. Adjust sweetness and salt to taste.
