Method

Main Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until well blended. Add the chicken breast to the marinade, ensuring it is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    Heat a grill or a skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on the grill. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 75°C (165°F). Once cooked, let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

  3. 3

    Chop the Parsley

    While the chicken is resting, finely chop the fresh parsley and set it aside for garnishing.

Side Preparation

  1. 4

    Prepare the Green Beans

    Trim the ends of the green beans and rinse them under cold water. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil, then add the green beans. Blanch for 3-4 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp. Drain and set aside.

  2. 5

    Sauté the Green Beans

    In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the blanched green beans and sliced almonds. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the beans are warmed through and the almonds are lightly toasted.

Plating

  1. 6

    Plate the Dish

    On a serving plate, arrange the sliced chicken breast. Add the sautéed green beans with almonds alongside. Garnish the chicken with chopped parsley before serving.
