Step-by-Step Instructions
1
In a large bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, hot sauce, rice vinegar, garlic, and ginger to make the marinade.
2
Add the chicken to the marinade and toss to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours.
3
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
4
While the chicken is cooking, steam the broccoli florets in a steamer basket until they are tender. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
5
To serve, slice the cooked chicken into strips and place it on top of the steamed broccoli. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds, and serve over a bed of steamed rice.
