Cooking Steps
-
Adjust rack to middle position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce.
-
Trim green beans if necessary.
-
In oven-ready tray, toss green beans with a drizzle of oil, half the garlic powder (you’ll use the rest in the next step), salt, and pepper. (For 4 servings, divide everything between two trays.)
-
In a small bowl, combine panko, sesame seeds, 1 TBSP olive oil (2 TBSP for 4), a pinch of salt, and pepper.
-
Pat chicken* dry with paper towels and season all over with remaining garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Arrange over green beans (for 4 servings, divide chicken between two trays).
-
Brush tops of chicken with mayonnaise; mound with panko mixture, pressing firmly to adhere (no need to coat the undersides).
-
Roast on middle rack (be sure your oven has preheated!) until green beans are tender, topping is golden brown, and chicken is cooked through, 20-25 minutes. (For 4, roast two trays side by side on top rack.)
-
When chicken has 5 minutes left, empty rice into a medium microwave-safe bowl (breaking up rice with your hands). Add 3 TBSP water (6 TBSP for 4 servings). Cover tightly with plastic wrap; microwave until rice is warmed through and tender, 1½-2 minutes.
-
Fluff rice with a fork. Stir in 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4); taste and season with salt and pepper if desired.
-
Divide chicken, green beans, and rice between plates in separate sections. Top chicken with spicy mayo and serve.
