Cooking Steps
• Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce. • Trim, peel, and cut carrots on a diagonal into ½-inch-thick pieces (halve carrots lengthwise if they’re on the larger side). Trim green beans if necessary. Peel and mince or grate garlic. Zest and quarter lemon.
Cut broccoli into bite-size pieces if necessary. (Save carrots for another use.)
• Toss carrots on one side of a baking sheet with 1 tsp Ranch Spice (2 tsp for 4 servings), a drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper. (You’ll use the rest of the Ranch Spice in the next step.) • Roast on top rack for 10 minutes (you’ll add more to the sheet then).
Swap in broccoli for carrots; roast on top rack for 5 minutes (you’ll add more to the sheet then).
• Meanwhile, pat chicken* dry with paper towels; season all over with remaining Ranch Spice, salt, and pepper. • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, 6-8 minutes per side. Turn off heat; transfer chicken to a cutting board to rest. Wipe out pan.
• Once carrots have roasted 10 minutes, remove sheet from oven. Carefully toss green beans on opposite side of sheet with a drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper. • Return sheet to top rack and roast until carrots are browned and green beans are tender, 12-15 minutes more.
Once broccoli has roasted 5 minutes, remove sheet from oven. Cook through the rest of this step as instructed.
• Heat a drizzle of oil in pan used for chicken over medium heat. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 30 seconds. Whisk in stock concentrate, cream cheese, a squeeze of lemon juice, and 1/3 cup water (½ cup for 4 servings). Cook, whisking, until thickened, 2-3 minutes. • Remove pan from heat. Whisk in sour cream, 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4), and a pinch of lemon zest until butter is melted and sauce is combined. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
• Slice chicken crosswise. • Divide chicken, carrots, and green beans between plates. Spoon sauce over chicken. Serve with remaining lemon wedges on the side.
Chicken is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 165°.

Reviews from our home cooks
Oh my goodness so delicious. I would rate more stars if possible. Easy to prepare. The chicken is moist, tender and so flavorful. And the veggies....perfect!! So good!!!
The sauce on the chicken was 4 stars - excellent flavor! Took off a star due to the cooking directions did not include the broccoli that was substituted for the green beans. Cooking time for broccoli was not the same. In addition, one of the carrots was dried out.
Yummy and easy. I put the green beans on before the broccoli to make them a little softer than the recipe called for.
Best: the flavors, (especially the sauce ingredients), and the big, juicy carrots that roasted up great. Least: the green beans were old, dried out, rubbery and flavorless.
Would have preferred the chicken breaded. Green beans and carrots needed more flavor. I would have done hot honey on carrots and garlic on green beans.
The creamy chicken sauce was a banger! We absolutely love it poured it all over the dish. Drank the rest from the plate!! :)
Lots of carrots and green beans. We added too much seasoning to the carrots thought it was a whole package and was supposed to be 1 tsp so was overpowering- my fault though. The sauce was excellent
We add our own brown rice. Love the double veggies and sauce!
Instructions for cooking chicken had chicken cooking too long. Instructions stated 6-8 minutes per side but the chicken was blackened on the one side after only 3 minutes
Very easy and delicious weeknight meal! 20 month old to adults all loved it
