Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spray it with avocado oil for easy cleanup.

- Once cooked, remove the sheet pan from the oven. Squeeze fresh lime juice over the mixture to brighten the flavors and garnish with cilantro and sesame seeds for a beautiful presentation.
- Serve the BBQ chicken with cauliflower rice for a lower carb option, or pair it with white rice for a gluten-free meal. Enjoy!
