Ingredients

Vegetables:

  • 1/2 head Napa cabbage cut into chunks
  • 2 Red Bell pepper thinly sliced
  • 1 large carrot peeled and cut into julienne sticks
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Chicken:

  • 1 ¼ lb skinless boneless chicken breasts
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tbsp grated ginger
  • 6 tbsp honey
  • ¼ cup ketchup
  • ¼ cup coconut sugar
  • 2 tbsp rice wine vinegar
  • 3 tbsp tamari
  • 2 tbsp water
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch

Garnish:

  • White and black sesame seeds
  • Cilantro

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 F.
  • Place the vegetables on a large baking sheet and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Place the chicken in a large plastic bag.
  • In a bowl, mix together the garlic, ginger, honey, ketchup, coconut sugar, rice wine vinegar, and tamari. Add ¼ cup of the sauce to the chicken and toss to combine.
  • Place the chicken on top of the vegetables, sprinkle with a pinch each of salt and pepper, and bake for 20 minutes.
  • Put the rest of the sauce into a saucepan over medium low heat.
  • Combine the water and cornstarch and add it to the sauce. Bring the sauce to a slight boil, then reduce the temperature to a medium low and simmer until it thickens, about 3-4 minutes.
  • Drizzle the chicken and vegetables with the rest of the sauce and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the chicken reaches 165 F.
  • Serve topped with sesame seeds and cilantro, if desired.
