Scale
Vegetables
- 3 medium Yukon Gold potatoes, diced
- 2 cups fresh green beans, cut into 1-inch pieces
Meat
- 1 lb chicken breasts, pounded to 1/2-inch thickness
Dairy & Seasonings
- 1/2 cup butter
- 0.7 oz package dry Italian dressing mix
Instructions
- Prepare the vegetables and chicken: Cut the green beans into 1-inch pieces and the potatoes into diced chunks. Pound the chicken breasts to an even 1/2-inch thickness for consistent cooking.
- Arrange the ingredients in the baking dish: Line one side of the baking dish with the green beans, and on the opposite side, arrange the potatoes. Place the chicken breasts down the middle of the dish.
- Add butter and seasonings: Cut the butter into small pieces and layer over the green beans, potatoes, and chicken. Sprinkle the Italian dressing mix evenly over the entire dish.
- Bake: Cover the dish tightly with foil and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 1 hour, until the chicken is cooked through and vegetables are tender.
Notes
- You can substitute chicken thighs for breasts for juicier meat.
- If you prefer crispy edges, remove the foil during the last 10 minutes of baking.
- This dish pairs well with a simple green salad or crusty bread.
