INGREDIENTS
6 tablespoons olive oil
2 lemons, 1 thinly sliced, 1 juiced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3/4 pound trimmed green beans
8 small red potatoes, quartered
4 chicken breasts (bones left in, with skin, about 3 1/4 pounds)
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 400°F. Coat a large baking dish or cast-iron skillet
with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Arrange the lemon slices in a single
layer in the bottom of the dish or skillet.
In a large bowl,
combine the remaining oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and pepper; add
the green beans and toss to coat. Using a slotted spoon or tongs, remove
the green beans and arrange them on top of the lemon slices. Add the
potatoes to the same olive-oil mixture and toss to coat. Using a slotted
spoon or tongs, arrange the potatoes along the inside edge of the dish
or skillet on top of the green beans. Place the chicken in the same bowl
with the olive-oil mixture and coat thoroughly. Place the chicken,
skin-side up, in the dish or skillet. Pour any of the remaining
olive-oil mixture over the chicken.
Roast for 50 minutes.
Remove the chicken from the dish or skillet. Place the beans and
potatoes back in oven for 10 minutes more or until the potatoes are
tender. Place a chicken breast on each of 4 serving plates; divide the
green beans and potatoes equally. Serve warm.
