Ingredients:
Instructions:
- In a small mixing bowl, combine the Italian salad dressing, vinegar, honey, and olive oil. Whisk together until well blended.
- Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour half of the dressing mixture over the chicken and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes, preferably in the refrigerator.
- While the chicken is marinating, clean and slice the mushrooms.
- Trim the green beans.
- Halve the cherry tomatoes.
- Heat a large oven-safe pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade (discard the marinade) and place the chicken breasts in the pan.
- Sear the chicken breasts on each side for about 2-3 minutes until they are golden brown, but not fully cooked. Remove the chicken breasts from the pan and set them aside.
- In the same pan, add the sliced mushrooms and green beans. Sauté them in the residual oil in the pan for about 5-7 minutes, until the mushrooms are tender and the green beans are slightly soft.
- Season the vegetables with a dash of salt and black pepper.
- Add the seared chicken breasts back into the pan, nestling them among the vegetables.
- Pour the remaining balsamic mixture over the chicken and vegetables.
- Scatter the halved cherry tomatoes over the top.
- Transfer the pan to the preheated oven and roast for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken breasts are cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 74°C) and the vegetables are tender.
- Once done, remove the pan from the oven.
- Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving.
- Plate the chicken with the roasted vegetables and drizzle any remaining balsamic sauce from the pan over the top.
- Serve warm, and enjoy your delicious one-pan balsamic chicken with mushrooms, green beans, and cherry tomatoes.
Tips:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) before you start preparing the ingredients to save time.
- Cut the chicken breasts into equal-sized pieces to ensure even cooking.
- Use fresh green beans and mushrooms for the best texture and flavor.
- Marinate the chicken in the Italian dressing, vinegar, honey, and olive oil mixture for at least 30 minutes to enhance the flavor.
- Line your baking sheet or pan with parchment paper for easy clean-up.
- Toss the vegetables with a bit of the marinade before adding them to the pan to ensure they are well-coated and flavorful.
- Halfway through cooking, you can give everything a gentle stir to make sure the vegetables and chicken cook evenly.
- Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or basil for an extra burst of flavor and color.
