Tender chicken meatballs brushed with a savory sauce called tsukune are my favorite skewer on offer at a yakitori restaurant. Here the classic dish gets a weeknight makeover thanks to a single sheet pan streamlining the cooking process, with meatballs on one side and green beans on the other. After their stint in the oven, the meatballs get a sticky coating of sweet soy glaze, while the green beans (still crisp-tender!) are tossed in a bright sesame dressing. Piled on rice, it’s a complete meal built from components that make great leftovers—if you don’t finish them all the first night.
