I've made a gluten free, dairy free chicken dinner all done on one pan and I'm. So. EXCITED about it! New fave weeknight recipe: sheet pan sesame chicken with veggies.
I'm sure you can all guess why I'm obsessed with this dish.
..
Ahem. One pan. 🤣.
Okay but seriously, here are some other reasons to love this sheet pan sesame chicken (although one pan is a super solid one is it not?) :
First, it's a full meal with no gluten OR dairy! Instead of regular rice I used cauliflower pearls and I honestly didn't even miss the rice.
Second, a light yet super flavorful sesame sauce.
Third, TONS of veggies! We got broccoli, bell pepper, carrots, and snap peas (plus that cauliflower).
Snag the recipe below 👍🏻!

How can I use frozen snap peas? Should I thaw first? Thanks!
