This sheet pan chicken and chickpeas is well-spiced with a little heat that builds as you eat it. The chicken is moist and flavorful, the carrots and onion are tender, and chickpeas taste wonderfully rich roasted in the mixture of spices. A squeeze of lime and cilantro at the end add a bright pop.

A very coconutty and chewy rice flour dessert. Traditionally, this is baked in banana leaves, but my family prefers the crispy edges, which is why I use a sheet pan. I have been testing out several types of chewy desserts using rice flour, and this seems to be the favorite.
