Pesto: you’ve had it on pasta or maybe as a dip. Let us introduce you to yet another way to use this Italian favorite. Here, we’re spreading it onto chicken breasts, using it as a glue to hold down a layer of panko breadcrumbs before they’re roasted in the oven. That way, you get herby aromatics, meaty juices, and crispy golden goodness in every bite.

Instructions

Prep

1

Adjust racks to middle and top positions and preheat oven to 450 degrees. Wash and dry all produce (except green beans). Cut potatoes into ½-inch cubes.

Roast Potatoes

2

Toss potatoes on a baking sheet with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Roast on top rack, tossing halfway through, until browned and tender, 20-25 minutes.

Make Crust

3

In a small bowl, combine panko, mozzarella, a drizzle of olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper.

Roast Chicken

4

Place chicken on another, lightly oiled baking sheet. Brush the top of each chicken breast with a thin layer of pesto (you may have some left over). Cover pesto-brushed sides with crust mixture, pressing to adhere. Roast on middle rack until chicken is cooked through, about 20 minutes.

Cook Green Beans

5

Microwave green beans in their bag until tender, 2-4 minutes. (TIP: No microwave? No problem! Steam beans in a small pot with a splash of water until just tender, 5-7 minutes.) Quarter lemon. Transfer green beans to a large bowl along with almonds and 1 TBSP butter. Squeeze in juice from 2 lemon wedges. Toss until beans are coated and butter has melted. Season with salt and pepper.

Plate and Serve

6

Divide potatoes, chicken, and green beans between plates. Serve with remaining lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over.
