Chicken And Green Beans Recipes

OVEN-FRIED CHICKEN WITH GREEN BEANS

Steps:

• Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil and coat with cooking spray. Combine the cornflakes, 1 tablespoon olive oil and the paprika in a medium bowl; season with salt and pepper. Combine the yogurt, lemon juice, 1 tablespoon water, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl; add the chicken and toss to coat.
• Dredge the chicken in the cornflake mixture, pressing to help it adhere. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet; mist with cooking spray. Bake on the upper oven rack until lightly browned, about 15 minutes. Flip the chicken and bake until cooked through, 7 to 10 more minutes.
• Meanwhile, toss the green beans, garlic, scallion whites and the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a bowl; season with salt and pepper. Spread on another baking sheet; bake on the lower oven rack, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 20 minutes. Toss with the lemon zest and scallion greens. Serve with the chicken and honey mustard.

CHICKEN AND GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE

Steps:

• For the casserole: Heat a few inches of water to a low boil, add salt and the green beans and cook 3 to 4 minutes to tender-crisp, drain.
• Heat the EVOO in a large, deep skillet over medium to medium-high heat, add the mushrooms and lightly brown them, 7 to 8 minutes. Add the butter, shallots and garlic, season with salt, pepper and thyme, and stir 2 to 3 minutes more. Add the flour, stir a minute, add the wine, stir in the stock and thicken. Add the cream and Boursin and reduce the heat to simmer. Add the green beans and chicken and thicken a bit; stir in the tarragon.
• Transfer into a casserole dish and cool. Cover and refrigerate for a make-ahead meal.
• To reheat: Bring back to room temp. Bake at 375 degrees F until bubbly, 50 to 60 minutes; top with homemade or store-bought Fried Onions.
• Place the chicken in a large stockpot. Add the celery, carrot, onion, garlic, lemon, bay leaf, peppercorns and the herb bundle; season with salt. Cover the chicken with water and bring to a boil; reduce the heat to a low, rolling simmer. Simmer 60 to 75 minutes, then cool the chicken in its stock. Strain the stock. Remove the chicken in large pieces from the skin and bones. Cut half of the meat into bite-size chunks. Thinly slice or pull the remaining meat.
• Heat 2 to 3 inches of frying oil to 365 degrees F in a countertop fryer or in a deep medium pot over medium to medium-high heat. Separate the onion rings and soak in the buttermilk. Toss a few rings at a time into the flour and fry until crisp; drain on paper towels and repeat with the remaining onions.

Steps:

• Bring the wild rice and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender but not mushy, 20 to 25 minutes. Drain off any excess liquid, fluff the rice with a fork, and cook uncovered 5 minutes more.
• While the rice cooks, heat the oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook until completely browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Combine the rice, chicken, green beans, mushroom soup, and mayonnaise in a large baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 45 minutes.

SLOW-ROASTED CHICKEN WITH GARLICKY GREEN BEANS AND SAGE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 325 degrees. Toss the green beans, garlic cloves and sage leaves with ¼ cup of the olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, and arrange in an even layer on a sheet pan. Rub the chicken with the remaining 2 tablespoons oil and 1 tablespoon salt. Arrange among the green beans and season with black pepper; scoot any green beans out from under the chicken. (It's okay if the green beans are clumped together.) Roast, tossing the green beans occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through, and the green beans are dark green and wrinkled, about 1 hour 30 minutes.
• Transfer the chicken to a platter. Stir the vinegar into the green beans and season with salt and pepper to taste. Transfer the green beans and garlic to the platter, scraping all the pan drippings and browned bits from the pan.
• Eat the chicken with the green beans, cloves of roasted garlic and a spoonful of the pan drippings. Optionally, if you'd like the chicken's skin to be more browned, return the chicken to the sheet pan and broil until golden.
