Ingredients:
6 chicken breasts
salt and black pepper to taste
3 tablespoons tamari
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice (1 lime)
¼ cup honey
2 teaspoons sesame oil
Seasonings:
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
For the vegetables:
1 1/2 cups broccoli florets,
1 bunch of asparagus, trimmed
1/3 cup of yellow bell pepper chunks
For meal prepping:
Side of your choice: brown rice or quinoa
6 lunch containers
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 400ºF. Line a a baking sheet with heavy duty foil (makes for easy clean up). Spray a large baking sheet with cooking spray. Place the chicken on the prepared baking sheet. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. In a small bowl, combine the tamari, lime juice, honey, and sesame oil together. Drizzle 1/3 of the sauce over the chicken. Bake for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, combine the seasonings in a small bowl and set aside. After 20 minutes, remove baking pan from the oven, flip the chicken and place the asparagus, broccoli and bell peppers along the sides of the chicken. Sprinkle the chicken and vegetables with seasonings and drizzle sauce over the vegetables and some more on the chicken (reserve 1 teaspoon for the end). Return the oven back to the pan and bake for another 10-15 minutes, or once the chicken is cooked through and has reached an internal temperature of 165ºF. Drizzle the chicken with additional sauce and turn the oven to broil for 1-2 minutes, until the chicken has a nice brown color. Sprinkle with chopped parsley, if desired and serve hot.
***** For meal prepping: Make the brown rice or quinoa while the chicken is cooking. Divide evenly into lunch containers and store in the fridge for up for up five days.
