Step 4. Place the chicken and veggies in a large bowl, then pour the glaze over them. Give it a good toss and massage to coat everything evenly with the orange glaze. Put the remaining marinade in a small bowl for later.

Step #5. Place in the oven to roast until the chicken is fully cooked through, and when you get crispy Brussels sprouts (until they’re golden brown). Do this for around 25-30 minutes. Sprinkle the top of the chicken with the reserved orange zest and sesame seeds (optional).

Step #6. Serve with warm, crusty bread topped with cinnamon-honey butter. Enjoy!
