Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the drumsticks on one side of the baking sheet, spacing them evenly apart. Place the potatoes on the other side of the baking sheet, leaving an empty space in the center for the broccoli. Drizzle the potatoes with 1 tablespoon of of the olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper, tossing to evenly coat. Bake until the potatoes begin to soften and the drumsticks begin to cook and caramelize, 20 minutes.
• Remove the baking sheet from the oven and put the broccoli in the center. Drizzle the broccoli with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, and lightly sprinkle with salt and pepper, tossing with tongs to evenly coat. Brush the drumsticks with the teriyaki glaze on all sides.
• Return the baking sheet to the oven and roast until the broccoli and potatoes are tender and charred in spots and the drumsticks are completely cooked through and read an internal temperature of 160 degrees F, 20 to 25 minutes more. Divide chicken and vegetables between two plates and serve.

ASIAN CHICKEN THIGHS WITH BROCCOLINI

Steps:

• Position a rack in the upper third of the oven; preheat to 450 degrees F. Put the chicken on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet; drizzle with 1 teaspoon sesame oil, sprinkle with the five-spice powder and toss. Arrange skin-side up; season with salt and pepper. Roast until the chicken is cooked through and the skin is crisp, 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, stir the hoisin sauce, brown sugar and remaining 1 teaspoon sesame oil in a small bowl. Grate 1 garlic clove into the sauce; set aside. Chop the remaining garlic. Trim the broccolini and slice lengthwise into long florets. Trim and scrub the carrots; halve or quarter lengthwise.
• Preheat the broiler. Brush half the hoisin sauce mixture on the chicken and broil until bubbling, 1 to 2 minutes. Brush with the remaining sauce and broil 1 to 2 more minutes.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the broccolini, carrots and chopped garlic; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until the garlic is soft, 1 minute. Add 1/4 cup water, cover and cook until the vegetables are crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Uncover and stir in the sesame seeds.
• Divide the chicken among plates; top with the scallion. Serve with the vegetables.

SHEET PAN CHICKEN THIGHS WITH BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Place a large rimmed baking sheet in the oven and preheat the oven to 450℉ with the pan in the oven. Preheating the baking sheet helps the ingredients cook evenly.
• While the oven preheats, place broccoli florets and onion in a medium bowl. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Set aside.
• Make the rub: In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, cumin, chili powder, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and chipotle powder.
• Rub the chicken thighs with the remaining 1 teaspoon of the oil. Sprinkle all over with the seasoning rub.
• When the oven is preheated, use an oven mitt to carefully remove the hot sheet pan from the oven. Spray the sheet pan with cooking spray. Spread the vegetables in an even layer on the baking sheet, leaving spaces for the chicken thighs. Nestle the chicken thighs among the vegetables.
• Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for 15 minutes. Stir the vegetables and continue cooking until the chicken is cooked through and registers 165℉ on an instant read thermometer, about 5 minutes more.
• While the chicken is cooking, prepare the Honey-Mustard Sauce by combining the mayonnaise, mustard, honey, coconut aminos, thyme, and garlic powder in a small bowl. Taste and season with salt and pepper as desired.
• Serve Honey-Mustard Sauce with chicken and vegetables. Any leftover sauce may be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up 4 days.

PEANUT CHICKEN AND BROCCOLI SHEET PAN SUPPER

Steps:

• Make a peanut sauce: Pour the honey, peanut butter, soy sauce and Worcestershire sauce into a large bowl along with the cayenne pepper, garlic, lime juice and 1/4 cup of olive oil. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper, then whisk together. Reserve 1/2 cup in a small bowl for serving.
• Add the chicken thighs and drumsticks to the large bowl with the remaining sauce and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F and line a baking sheet with foil. Remove the chicken from the marinade and place on the baking sheet.
• Add the broccoli to a bowl and toss with the remaining tablespoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Place on the sheet pan with the chicken, then bake until the broccoli is tender and golden brown in spots, the chicken is crisp and the internal temperature is 165 degrees F, about 30 minutes. Serve the chicken with the broccoli and rice. Sprinkle with the scallions and serve with the lime wedges and reserved peanut sauce.

SHEET PAN CHICKEN WITH ROASTED BROCCOLI AND POTATOES

Steps:

• Place baking sheet in oven and preheat to 500°F for at least 15 minutes
• Season the chicken and potatoes: Combine the chicken and potatoes in a bowl. Sprinkle with 1/2 tablespoon of oil, paprika, garlic granules, onion granules, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt, pepper, and cayenne. Use your hands to toss the chicken and potatoes with the oil and spice, mixing until everything is evenly coated.
• Add the broccoli: Toss the broccoli in a clean mixing bowl with the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil and sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Remove the pan from oven (and close the oven door so the heat doesn't escape). Use tongs to flip the chicken and potatoes. Arrange the broccoli on the pan around the chicken. Roast for another 15 to 20 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and registers at least 165F in the thickest part of the thigh. The potatoes and broccoli should also be tender.

SKILLET CHICKEN THIGHS WITH BROCCOLI AND ORZO

Steps:

• Season chicken thighs on both sides with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. In a large, heavy skillet (preferably cast-iron or stainless steel), heat olive oil over medium-high. Cook the chicken, skin-side down, until golden brown, about 7 minutes. Flip and cook until golden on the other side, about 5 minutes more. Transfer chicken to a plate and set aside.
• Decrease heat to medium, add butter and lemon slices, and cook until the lemons release their juices and start to brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to the plate with the chicken.
• Add broccoli, orzo, thyme, garlic and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt to the skillet and stir to coat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the orzo is lightly toasted and the broccoli is bright green, about 5 minutes.
• Deglaze with the wine and cook until the liquid is mostly absorbed, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Add the broth and lemon slices to the skillet, then add the chicken thighs, skin-side up, along with any liquid from the plate. Cover the skillet and continue cooking until the orzo is tender, most of the liquid is absorbed, and the chicken is cooked through, 13 to 15 minutes.
• If you want to add a little texture and crunch to the dish, uncover and continue to cook until browned and crisp on the bottom, 3 to 5 minutes. Serve warm.
