Ingredients
2 each Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts
12 oz Potatoes
6 oz Green Beans
¼ cup Panko Breadcrumbs
3 tbsp Basil Pesto
1 oz Garlic & Herb Flavored Butter
2 tbsp Mayonnaise
2 oz Shredded Cheddar & Monterey Jack Cheese Blend
¼ cup Sour Cream
1 each Single-Use Aluminum Tray
How to make it
1
Take the butter out to soften. Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat to 450°F. Rinse and dry all produce. Snap the stem ends off the green beans. In a bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, cheddar and Monterey Jack, mayonnaise, and pesto; season and stir.
2
Pat the chicken dry; season both sides with salt and pepper. Place on one side of the tray. Top evenly with the cheesy breadcrumbs. Add the green beans to the other side; drizzle with olive oil, season, and toss. Bake uncovered 20-22 minutes until the green beans are fork-tender and the chicken is cooked through. USDA minimum: 165°F for chicken. Toss the baked green beans with the softened butter.
3
Place the potatoes in a microwave-safe bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, season, and toss. Cover with a damp paper towel, tucking the edges. Microwave on high 9-12 minutes until fork-tender. Add the sour cream and mash to your desired consistency. Taste and season. Serve the baked chicken and green beans with the mashed potatoes.
