Step 1

Start Chicken and Prepare Ingredients Pat chicken breasts dry and season both sides with half the Italian seasoning (the rest is yours to use as you please) and a pinch of salt and pepper. Place a medium non-stick pan over medium heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil. Add chicken to hot pan and cook until browned, 5-7 minutes on one side While chicken cooks, core tomatoes and cut into 1/2" dice. Mince garlic.

Step 2

Cook the Green Beans Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil. Add green beans, 1/4 cup water, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper to hot pan. Cover, and cook until tender, 6-8 minutes. If green beans need more time, add 2 Tbsp. water, cover, and stir occasionally, 1-3 minutes. Add vinegar and stir often until well-coated, 1-2 minutes. Remove from burner.

Step 3

Finish the Chicken Flip chicken, and add garlic, tomatoes, 2 Tbsp. water, and a pinch of salt and pepper to hot pan. Stir often until tomatoes are soft, 3-4 minutes. Mash tomatoes until saucy. Then top chicken evenly with pesto, then cheese. Cover and cook until cheese melts and chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 2-3 minutes. Remove from burner.

Step 4

Plate dish as pictured on front of card, topping green beans with almonds. Bon appétit!
