Heat the oven to 200ºC, gas mark 6. Slash the skin of the chicken thighs and put them in a large bowl. Coat in ½ tbsp sesame oil and ½ the plum and hoisin sauce. Put in a roasting tin,skin-side up, and roast for 20 minutes.
After 20 minutes, brush the chicken with the remaining sauce. Roast for a further 15 minutes. Add the pak choi to the roasting tin, brush with the remaining ½ tbsp sesame oil and pour in 50ml water. Roast everything for another 8 minutes. Scatter the sesame seeds over the chicken and stir the brown rice and edamame bean stir fry into the contents of the tin. Return to the oven for a final 5 minutes or until the rice and beans are piping hot and the chicken is cooked, the juices run clear and no pink meat remains.
