INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast (~170g)
1 cup Fresh Green Beans (~125g)
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (~14g)
1/2 Lemon (zest and juice, ~50g)
1 Garlic Clove (~3g)
1 tsp Dried Thyme (~1g)
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, juice and zest from half a lemon, minced garlic, dried thyme, salt, and pepper to create the marinade.
Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish and pour half of the marinade over it, ensuring it is evenly coated. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, toss the fresh green beans with the remaining marinade and arrange them on a baking sheet.
Place the marinated chicken breast on a separate baking sheet or oven-safe dish.
Roast both the chicken and green beans in the oven. Bake the chicken for about 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C), and roast the green beans for 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly crisp.
For extra crispiness on the chicken, switch the oven to broil during the last 2-3 minutes of cooking, keeping a close eye to avoid burning.
Remove from oven, let rest briefly, and serve the crispy lemon herb chicken alongside the roasted green beans.
