DIJON CHICKEN AND GREEN BEANS
This is a quick and simple dish to make when you've had a busy day. Low in calories AND it tastes good!! If you like your green beans crunchy, this is perfect. If you prefer tender, I would recommend blanching or boiling beans for a minute before putting them in foil. A friend found this recipe and made it on the grill when we went camping, but I've also made it at home in the oven.

Steps:
- 1. Cut four pieces of foil and place the chicken on the foil.
- 2. Mix the dijon, honey and pepper, pour over the chicken breasts.
- 3. Divide the green beans evenly and place on top of the chicken breasts. Wrap the foil to create a sealed packet.
- 4. Bake at 450 degrees for 18 to 20 minutes. ENJOY!
Tips:
- To ensure the chicken breasts cook evenly, pound them to an even thickness before searing.
- For a crispy chicken crust, sear the chicken in a hot skillet with a little bit of oil.
- To prevent the Dijon sauce from curdling, whisk in the Dijon mustard and heavy cream slowly.
- For a more intense Dijon flavor, use a whole-grain Dijon mustard.
- To add a touch of sweetness to the sauce, stir in a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup.
- If you don't have green beans, you can substitute another type of vegetable, such as asparagus, broccoli, or carrots.
Conclusion:
