Zubereitungszeit ca. 45 MinutenVorbereitung ca. 20 MinutenKochzeit ca. 25 Minuten
Zutaten:
- 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs
- 1 cup teriyaki sauce (divided)
- 4 cups broccoli florets
- 2 medium bell peppers (cut into chunks)
- 2 medium carrots (thinly sliced)
- 1 medium red onion (cut into wedges)
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 3 cups cooked rice (warm)
- 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
- 2 green onions (sliced)
Arbeitsschritte:
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil.
- Pat the 2 pounds chicken thighs dry and toss them in a bowl with ⅓ cup of the teriyaki sauce. Reserve the remaining ⅔ cup, because the sugary sauce will scorch if it roasts the whole time, so we glaze with it at the end instead.
- Toss the broccoli, bell peppers, sliced carrots, and red onion with the 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, and ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- Arrange the chicken down the center of the sheet pan. Scatter the veggies along both sides of the chicken in a single layer.
- Roast for 20 minutes, until the chicken reaches 175°F (80°C) and the vegetables are tender with browned edges. Thighs want that higher pull temperature, not 165°F, since that is where they turn silky.
- Brush the chicken generously with the reserved teriyaki sauce and drizzle some over the veggies as well, then switch the oven to broil for 2 to 3 minutes, until the glaze is bubbling and caramelized. Watch it closely, the sugar goes from glossy to burnt fast.
- Spoon any pan juices over the top, then serve over the 3 cups warm rice, finished with the 2 tablespoons sesame seeds and sliced green onions.
