How to Make Saucy Chicken And Green Beans

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Wash and trim 1 pound of green beans. Steam or blanch until crisp-tender (about 5-7 minutes).
  3. In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add 1.5 pounds of boneless, skinless chicken breasts and brown on all sides.
  4. Season chicken with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  5. Spread the cooked green beans in a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  6. Arrange the browned chicken pieces over the green beans.

  8. Pour the sauce evenly over the chicken and green beans.
  9. Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
  10. Remove the foil, sprinkle 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese over the top, and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  11. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.
