Preheat the oven to 425°F. Sprinkle chicken with 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Arrange in a single layer on one side of the preheated baking sheet. Spread carrots on the other side. Drizzle the chicken and carrots with 1 tablespoon sesame oil. Turn the chicken over and stir the carrots to combine. Roast for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, combine soy sauce, vinegar, honey, ginger, Sriracha, garlic and the remaining 2 tablespoons sesame oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Place bok choy and scallions in a medium bowl; add half the sauce and toss to combine. After 15 minutes, remove the pan from the oven. Flip the chicken. Drizzle the chicken and carrots with the remaining sauce. Add the bok choy mixture to the carrots; stir to combine. Roast until the chicken is cooked through (an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part will register 165°F) and the vegetables are tender, 10 to 12 more minutes. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve with more Sriracha, if desired.

Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
