I'm always looking for the easy way around dinner, and I've been fascinated with all these one pan meals, so I finally decided to give one a go. It actually called for four pieces of chicken, but the chicken I was using seriously looked like it was King Kong's child, so I just coated two. It also called for new potatoes, but I was trying to use up some baking potatoes, so.....all this to say-the chicken had a great crust, and the vegetables are very forgiving and flexible, but it really was tasty! It'll make the rounds again....and again....and....
Ingredients:
For chicken: 1 large egg, 2 T lemon juice, 2 t. minced garlic, ½ T fresh chopped parsley, ½ t. each salt and pepper,
- ½ cup breadcrumbs, ⅓ cup fresh grated Parmesan cheese (I doubled these)
- 4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
For The Veggies:
- 8 (1 lb) baby potatoes, quartered, ½ c. butter, melted, 2 t. minced garlic, salt to taste
- 1 lb green beans
- Instructions:
- 1. In a large bowl, whisk together the egg, lemon juice, 2 teaspoons garlic, parsley, salt and pepper.
- 2. Dip chicken into egg mixture, cover and allow to marinade in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to an hour.
- 3. Preheat oven to 400. Grease a baking sheet. Set aside.
- 4. In another bowl, combine the breadcrumbs with the Parmesan cheese.
- 5. Dredge the egg coated chicken in the breadcrumb/Parmesan mixture, lightly pressing to evenly coat. If it doesn't coat enough, redip them in the egg and dip again in the breadcrumbs. Double coating make a great covering.
- 6. Place chicken onto the baking sheet / tray and lightly spray with cooking oil spray. Arrange the potatoes around the chicken in a single layer. Mix together the butter, 2 t. garlic and salt to taste, and pour half of the butter mixture over the potatoes. Toss to evenly coat.
- 7. Bake 15 minutes.
- 8. Remove tray from the oven and turn each chicken . Move the potatoes to one side and place the green beans around the chicken on the other side of the baking sheet. Pour remaining garlic butter and return to the oven to broil for a further 10 minutes, or until chicken is golden and potatoes are cooked through.
