Lemon Garlic Pan-Seared Chicken with Roasted Green Beans
Savor the bright, zesty flavor of pan-seared chicken infused with garlic and lemon, paired with crisp roasted green beans. This dish offers a perfectly balanced profile, featuring a lean protein punch complemented by fresh, vibrant vegetables and a hint of olive oil for richness.
INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup Green Beans
1 tablespoon Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1 serving Lemon Juice and Zest
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Slice the chicken breast into even pieces if desired for quicker cooking or leave whole.
In a bowl, mix the lemon juice and zest with minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Marinate the chicken breast in this mixture for at least 15 minutes.
Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat. Drizzle half of the olive oil (about 1/2 tablespoon) in the pan.
Sear the marinated chicken breast for about 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer the chicken to a plate and cover to keep warm.
Meanwhile, toss the green beans in the remaining olive oil, a pinch of salt, and a little pepper. Optionally, add a minced garlic clove if you love extra garlic flavor.
In the same skillet or in an oven preheated to 425°F, roast the green beans for 8-10 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
Plate the chicken breast alongside the roasted green beans. Drizzle any remaining pan juices over the dish and serve immediately.
