INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup Fresh Tomatoes (diced)
1 cup Green Beans, trimmed
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic, minced
2 tablespoons Fresh Basil, chopped
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Place the chicken breast on a cutting board; if needed, pound it lightly to even thickness for uniform cooking.
Season the chicken on both sides with salt and pepper.
Lightly brush the chicken with olive oil to help it crisp up during baking.
Arrange the chicken on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake the chicken for 18-20 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken is baking, prepare the tomato sauce by dicing fresh tomatoes and finely mincing the garlic.
In a medium saucepan, add a teaspoon of olive oil and sauté the garlic for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the diced tomatoes and a pinch of salt and let it simmer for about 5 minutes. Stir in the fresh basil at the end.
Blanch the green beans in boiling water for 3-4 minutes until tender-crisp, then quickly transfer them to an ice bath to stop the cooking process. Drain and season lightly with salt and a drizzle of olive oil if desired.
Plate the baked chicken cutlet, spoon over a generous portion of fresh tomato sauce, and serve with the tender green beans on the side.
