How to Make Baked Asian Style Chicken On Beans

1. Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F).
2. Halve each chicken breast horizontally to create 2 thin fillets per breast. (Approximately 4 fillets total, adjust as needed)
3. Tear off 4 large (12-inch) squares of heavy-duty aluminum foil.
4. Place one chicken fillet on each foil square.
5. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger and 1 tablespoon thinly sliced green onions (eschalot) over each fillet.
6. Top each fillet with a second fillet. Sprinkle with the remaining ginger and green onions.
7. Drizzle 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1 tablespoon Shaoxing rice wine (or dry sherry), and 1 teaspoon sesame oil over each chicken packet.
8. Fold foil over the chicken to create sealed packets. Crimp the edges to prevent leaks.
9. Place the foil packets on a baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes.
10. Carefully open the foil packets and bake for a further 10 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear.
11. Meanwhile, steam 1 cup of trimmed green beans, covered, over boiling water for 3-4 minutes, or until tender-crisp.
12. Serve the chicken immediately over the steamed green beans. Pour the pan juices from the foil packets over the chicken and beans.
