Main Dish
One dish dinners rock in my book! Especially when they're flavorful, easy and work with the Optavia Diet, Optavia 5 &1 diet and are a low carb recipe to boot!
This quick and easy dinner features chicken and green beans, with a spicy (but not too spicy) and ooey... gooey, cheesy twist.
Just add to the dish and bake and you've got a complete Lean and Green meal that everyone will love!
Happy cooking-
Stacey
Ingredients
1 pound fresh, French style green beans (the small, thin ones)* ends trimmed
⅓ C low sodium chicken broth
2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, thinly sliced (can use tenderloins too)
1 Tablespoon Stacey Hawkins Lit Garlic Seasoning, divided
1 C (16 Tablespoons) low-fat shredded mozzarella cheese
Directions
Preheat oven to 375° F.
Place green beans in a single layer in the bottom of a 9x12 baking dish and pour the broth over the beans.
Layer the chicken over the green beans and sprinkle with ½ of the Lit Garlic Seasoning.
Sprinkle the cheese over the chicken and then with the remaining Lit Garlic Seasoning.
Cover with foil and poke 4 holes in the top of the foil to let the steam vent.
Bake for 35-40 minutes until chicken is thoroughly cooked and beans are crisp tender. Serve hot.
