Cooking Times for Baked Chicken With Broccoli
To avoid overcooked and mushy broccoli, we have a simple method for keeping this a one pan meal. Here’s what you’ll do:
Get the chicken and squash going in the oven first.Prep the broccoli and toss it with some simple seasonings.With 10-20 minutes of cook time left (see recipe notes), add the broccoli to the sheet pan and place it back in the oven.

An Easy Sauce for Juicy Baked Chicken
We always try to keep it simple, so for this one pan chicken dinner we opted for a 4-ingredient sauce that’s easy to make and adds loads of flavor. Just mix up:
Melted ghee – For some rich, buttery flavor (you can sub regular butter or another cooking oil if desired).Coconut aminos – This salty-sweet type syrup will coat the chicken and keep it extra juicy.Chili powder – It’s not just for chili!Smoked paprika – Adds a little layer of smoky flavor to the chicken.
Simply mix the ingredients together and brush the sauce on both sides of the chicken before baking. You’ll be amazed by the flavor this simple sauce adds.
