Ingredients

  • 1 count rotisserie chicken
  • 18 oz broccoli florets
  • 3 count yellow bell peppers
  • 2 count oranges
  • ½ cup hoisin sauce
  • 3 tbsp toasted sesame oil
  • 2 tbsp sesame seeds
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Steps

  1. Heat the oven to 425°F. Slice the bell peppers into strips and spread them on a large sheet pan with the broccoli florets. Toss with 2 tbsp sesame oil and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  2. Roast the vegetables for 12 minutes, until the broccoli edges start to brown.
  3. While they roast, pull the rotisserie chicken meat off the bones into bite-size pieces and discard the skin and bones. Zest one orange and squeeze the juice from both.
  4. Stir the hoisin, orange juice, orange zest and remaining 1 tbsp sesame oil together in a bowl. Toss the chicken in half of the sauce.
  5. Add the chicken to the sheet pan, drizzle the rest of the sauce over everything and roast 6-8 more minutes until the chicken is hot (165°F) and the sauce is sticky.
  6. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve.
  7. Picky eaters can have plain chicken: set some aside in step 3 before saucing and warm it on the pan.
  8. Make ahead: slice the peppers, pull the chicken and mix the sauce up to 1 day ahead, and keep each covered in the fridge.

On the side: Steamed rice (20 min)

1 cup long grain white rice

  1. Rinse the rice. Bring twice as much water as rice to a boil with a pinch of salt, stir in the rice, cover and simmer on low for 18 minutes.
  2. Take it off the heat, keep the lid on 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.
