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
Boil baby potatoes in salted water for 12–15 minutes until fork tender. Drain and set aside.
Season chicken breasts with salt, pepper, paprika, and Italian seasoning.
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.
In the same skillet, add butter and remaining olive oil. Add garlic and sauté for 30 seconds.
Add cooked potatoes to the skillet, tossing to coat in garlic butter and herbs. Cook until lightly golden.
Add green beans, season with salt and pepper, and sauté 4–5 minutes until tender.
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.
