Adapted from: Home Chef

Chicken, Beef or Salmon topped with lemon garlic beurre blanc and served with sautéed green beans and mushrooms.

  • 12oz Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts (Filet mignon, or Salmon)
  • 8oz Green Beans
  • 6oz Cremini Mushrooms
  • 1oz Cream Cheese
  • oz Lemon Garlic Butter
  • oz Butter
  • ½tsp Garlic Salt
  • Olive oil
  • Salt & pepper
  • Cooking spray


Prep:

Turn oven on to 425°F. Let preheat, at least 10 minutes

If using filet mignon, pat dry. Cook until steak reaches desired doneness, or 4-6 minutes per side for medium/medium-well. Rest, 3 minutes. Steak thickness can vary, if you receive a thinner steak, we recommend checking for doneness sooner.

If using salmon, pat dry. Add salmon, skin-side up first, and cook until salmon reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes per side.

Prepare the ingredients:

Quarter mushrooms.

Trim ends off green beans, if necessary, and halve.

Pat chicken dry and season both sides with a pinch of salt and pepper.

Cook the chicken:

Place a large non-stick pan over medium heat and add 2 tsp olive oil. Add chicken to hot pan. Cook undisturbed until browned, 4-5 minutes on one side.

Remove from burner. Transfer chicken, seared side up, to a prepared baking sheet. Reserve pan, no need to wipe clean.

Roast in hot oven until chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 10-12 minutes.

While chicken roasts, continue recipe.

Cook the vegetables:

Return pan used to cook chicken to medium-high heat and add 2 tsp olive oil.

Add green beans, mushrooms, garlic salt, and a pinch of pepper to hot pan. Stir to combine.

Cover and reduce heat to medium. Stir occasionally until vegetables are tender, 6-8 minutes.

If green beans need more time, add 2 TBS water, cover, and stir occasionally, 1-3 minutes.

Uncover and stir occasionally until liquid has evaporated, 1-2 minutes.

Remove from burner and stir in plain butter until coated. Cover and set aside.

Make the sauce:

Place a small pot over medium-high heat. Add 2 TBS water and cream cheese to hot pot. Bring to a simmer.

Once simmering, stir until smooth and creamy, 1-2 minutes.

Remove from burner and stir in a pinch of salt and lemon garlic butter until combined.

Finish the dish:

Plate dish as pictured, top chicken with sauce. Bon appétit!
