Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 lb. chicken breast about 2 large or 3 medium breasts, boneless
  • 16 oz. potato Yukon gold variety
  • 16 oz. green beans French
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil 30g
  • 1 tsp salt

Marinade:

  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt 60g
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise light, (60g
  • 3 Tbsp lime juice freshly squeezed
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 cup cilantro loosely packed, tender stems ok
  • 1 Tbsp soy sauce or coconut aminos for GF, low sodium, 15g
  • 1 Tbsp honey 21g

Instructions

  1. Add all marinade ingredients to a blender or food processor and blend until combined.
  2. Pat chicken dry. Use a sharp knife to slice chicken breasts in half lengthwise (to make thinner breasts– no need to slice in half if it's already 1/2-inch or thinner) or pound to 1/2-inch thickness. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Place in an 8x8 dish (or large bowl). Reserve 1/2 cup of the marinade, toss remaining marinade with the chicken. Cover and marinate in the fridge for 20-30 minutes.
  3. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Grease a large baking sheet. Halve the green beans and dice the potatoes into 1/2-inch pieces (not much bigger or they’ll need more time cooking), add to the baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt, toss then spread out into an even layer. Bake for 25-28 minutes, tossing halfway through.
  4. Lightly grease a grill pan or skillet (preferably cast iron or stainless steel). Set to medium-high heat. Add chicken and grill for about 3-5 minutes each side or until cooked through (165F internal temperature).
  5. Divide vegetables and chicken amongst four bowls, drizzle the remaining marinade over top when ready to serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • you can also use boneless chicken thighs or chicken tenderloins
  • can sub for red potatoes or sweet potatoes. I like to use my vegetable chopper to dice so it’s quicker and the potatoes are even (though this is harder with petite potatoes). Keep the skins on if you want to get them a little crispy!
  • can also use coconut cream (or coconut milk) or sub for all mayo
  • : can sub for all Greek yogurt (if doing this I would recommend adding 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil to add some fat) 
  • can sub for brown sugar 
  • : I used frozen cubes for convenience.
