Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 lb boneless skinless chicken breast raw
  • 1 lb green beans trimmed
  • 1 cup marinara sauce
  • 4 oz part-skim mozzarella shredded
  • 2 tbsp grated Parmesan
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Heat the oven to 400°F. Bring a covered saucepan of water to a boil for the green beans.
  • Slice or pound the chicken to roughly 1/2-inch thickness, making four portions. Season with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt and pepper.
  • Heat the oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken 3–4 minutes per side until lightly browned.
  • Spoon marinara evenly over the chicken. Top with mozzarella and Parmesan. Transfer the skillet to the oven, or move everything to an oven-safe baking dish. Bake for 8–12 minutes, until the thickest part of every piece reaches 165°F and the cheese melts. Timing depends on thickness.
  • While the chicken bakes, boil the green beans for 4–6 minutes until tender to your liking; drain. Divide the chicken, sauce, cheese and beans evenly among four plates.
