Ingredients

For the Italian marinade:
  • ¾ cup olive oil
  • ¼ cup red or white wine vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
For the Italian chicken:
  • 1 lb chicken breast sliced into strips
  • ½ lb green beans washed and trimmed
  • ½ cup cherry tomatoes
  • ¼ cup chopped parsley to garnish

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Combine marinade ingredients in a small blender or food processor.
  2. Blend until mixed well.
  3. Remove 1/2 cup marinade, set rest aside.
  4. Add 1 cup marinade and chicken to large bowl, submerging chicken.
  5. Let marinate for at least 45 minutes, up to a day.
  6. Heat a large nonstick skillet on medium high.
  7. Add chicken to pan (use tongs to lift out of marinade, don't dump marinade in pan), stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, until lightly browned - about 8 minutes.
  8. When chicken has browned, but is not yet golden brown, and not yet 175 degrees internally, add tomatoes and green beans.
  9. Stir occasionally, let tomatoes burst and green beans caramelize, about 5 minutes.
  10. When vegetables have browned, and chicken is 175 degrees internally, add 2 tbsp marinade mix to pan and quickly toss to heat evenly, another 2 minutes.
  11. Remove from pan and serve immediately.
