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
- ⅘oz Lemon Garlic Butter
- ⅓oz 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:
