It’s about this time of year when I start putting away my winter clothes and pulling out the shorts and t-shirts that have been stored away for the winter. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not like I’m shoveling snow here in Sacramento, but it does get cold and this year has been unusually cold and rainy.

Spring is definitely here. And although we have a few more days of rain in the forecast, we’ve been blessed with some beautiful days filled with sunshine so far. The boys are spending most of their afternoons playing outside before I call them in for dinner and we get ready to head over to swim practice.

I really do love this time of year. School is winding down. We’re starting to plan our summer trips. Life just seems easier in the spring.

That’s why I’m loving this easy dinner so much. 20 Minute Sesame Chicken with Broccoli – it’s just what your busy weeknight ordered.

As you may know, I kind of love easy chicken dinners. Actually wrote a book all about it.

I love meals that are all in one. I don’t have to worry about cooking a veggie on the side with this easy dinner. It’s all built in!

If you’re not familiar with any of the ingredients in the recipe below, just visit the Asian aisle in your local store. You’ll be able to find everything you need there. A couple ingredients that you do not want to substitute for are the toasted sesame oil and the oyster sauce. These both give so much flavor to the dish that would absolutely be missed.

This dinner takes about 20 minutes to make from start to finish so make sure you get your rice going before you even start cooking.

My boys love the sesame seeds so I go a bit crazy with those as you can see. I also like to garnish with more sliced green onions if I have some leftover.

You guys. So, SO easy. You simply need to try this delicious dinner tonight!
