How to Make 30 Minute Almond Chicken
- In a large bowl or resealable plastic bag, toss chicken pieces with Italian dressing. Marinate for at least 5 minutes (or longer if time allows).
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, until golden brown.
- Pour in chicken broth and bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear.
- Add drained green beans to the skillet and cook for 5 minutes, or until heated through and tender-crisp.
- Carefully remove the cooked chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- Stir in cooked rice and toasted slivered almonds. Remove from heat, cover, and let stand for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- Serve the almond-rice mixture as a bed for the chicken. Garnish with extra almonds, if desired.
