Instructions
To Make Glaze:
Combine gluten-free soy sauce, honey, vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, cornstarch, and water in a medium-sized saucepan. Bring mixture to a boil while stirring frequently. When sauce thickens and bubbles remove from heat and set aside.
Preheat oven to 400. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil. If you are using foil lightly coat with a non-stick cooking spray.
Season each side of the chicken with salt and black pepper.
Spoon glaze over the chicken coating both sides. Reserve half of the glaze to use later.
Bake chicken for 20 minutes.
Remove from the oven and add some of the additional glaze on both sides of the chicken. Add broccoli and carrots in a single layer around the chicken. Toss vegetables with some glaze as well. Return to oven for 20 minutes.
Remove from oven, garnish with sesame seeds, and serve over cooked rice.
I served this dish with freshly cut pineapple chunks and it was delicious.
