Ingredients

• 1 lime, juiced
• 4 tablespoons honey
• 4 (5 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
• 5 tablespoons olive oil, divided
• 5 tablespoons peanut butter
• 1 (16 ounce) package potato gnocchi
• 5 tablespoons Thai green curry paste
• 2 large heads broccoli, cut into florets
• 2 small red onions, cut into wedges
• 3 tablespoons salted peanuts, roughly chopped
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Step 2

Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook gnocchi in the boiling water until they float to the top, 2 to 4 minutes. Drain and set aside.

Step 3

Toss chicken, peanut butter, curry paste, 3 tablespoons olive oil, honey, and salt together in a large bowl using your hands.

Step 4

Combine broccoli, red onion, and remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a separate bowl until well coated. Place chicken in a roasting dish; add broccoli mixture and gnocchi.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in centers and juices run clear, about 30 minutes, stirring halfway. An instant-read thermometer inserted into centers should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Top servings with cilantro, peanuts, and lime juice.
