Enjoy a balanced plate featuring zesty lemon herb roasted chicken paired with velvety creamy garlic mashed potatoes and crisp, sautéed green beans.

INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Chicken Breast
1/2 Lemon
1 teaspoon Olive Oil (for chicken marinade)
1 tablespoon Fresh Herbs (Rosemary/Thyme)
2 cloves Garlic (divided between chicken and mashed potatoes)
1 medium Potato
1 teaspoon Butter
1 tablespoon Low-Fat Milk
1 cup Green Beans
1 teaspoon Olive Oil (for sautéing green beans)
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Pat the chicken breast dry and place it on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, combine the juice of 1/2 lemon, 1 teaspoon olive oil, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh herbs, and one minced garlic clove. Brush this mixture evenly over the chicken.
Roast the chicken in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken roasts, peel and cut the potato into chunks. Boil in salted water until tender, about 15-20 minutes.
Drain the potato and return to the pot. Add the remaining minced garlic clove, 1 teaspoon butter, and 1 tablespoon low-fat milk. Mash until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the green beans and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until tender-crisp. Season with a pinch of salt.
Plate the roasted chicken alongside a serving of creamy garlic mashed potatoes and sautéed green beans. Optionally, drizzle with any remaining lemon herb mixture.
