Chicken with potatoes and green beans

A simple one-pan meal featuring herb-seasoned chicken with garlic butter potatoes and tender green beans.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 lb baby potatoes (red and yellow)
  • 2 cups green beans
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh herbs or parsley (optional garnish)

Instructions

  1. Boil baby potatoes in salted water for 12–15 minutes until fork tender. Drain and set aside.
  2. Season chicken breasts with salt, pepper, paprika, and Italian seasoning.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add chicken and cook 5–6 minutes per side until golden brown and fully cooked. Remove and rest.
  4. In the same skillet, add butter and remaining olive oil. Add garlic and sauté for 30 seconds.
  5. Add cooked potatoes to the skillet, tossing to coat in garlic butter and herbs. Cook until lightly golden.
  6. Add green beans, season with salt and pepper, and sauté 4–5 minutes until tender.
  7. Serve chicken alongside potatoes and green beans. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.

Notes

  • Cut potatoes in half if they’re large for even cooking.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure chicken reaches 165°F internally.
  • Substitute green beans with asparagus or broccoli if preferred.
