Ingredients
Instructions
- Adjust rack to top position (top and middle for 4 servings) and preheat oven to 425°F. Place 2 tablespoons butter (3 for 4 servings) in a small bowl to soften. Pat chicken dry with paper towels; season all over with salt and pepper. Arrange chicken on one side of a baking sheet (spread out for 4 servings). Brush tops with half the honey Dijon dressing (reserve the rest). Sprinkle Monterey Jack over chicken. Crush crispy onions in their package, then sprinkle over cheese, pressing gently to adhere. Roast on top rack for 7 minutes.
- Meanwhile, wash and dry produce. Trim green beans if needed. After 7 minutes, remove sheet from oven. Toss green beans on empty side with a drizzle of oil, salt and pepper. (For 4 servings, leave chicken roasting; add green beans to a second baking sheet and roast on middle rack.) Return sheet to top rack and roast until green beans are tender and chicken is browned and cooked through, 12-15 minutes more.
- While chicken roasts, combine softened butter with garlic powder to taste; season with salt and pepper. Halve ciabatta and toast. Spread cut sides with garlic butter. Cut each half diagonally.
- Toss green beans with 1 tablespoon plain butter (2 for 4 servings) until melted; season with salt and pepper. Divide chicken, green beans and garlic bread between plates. Serve with remaining dressing on the side.
Recipe Tips
For extra crunch, press the crispy onions firmly into the cheese before roasting.
If your green beans are thick, blanch them for 1 minute before adding to the sheet pan.
Let the chicken rest for 2 minutes after roasting to keep it juicy.
FAQ
Can I use chicken breasts instead of cutlets?
Yes, but you may need to pound them to an even thickness or increase the roasting time by 5-10 minutes.
What can I substitute for honey Dijon dressing?
Mix 2 parts honey with 1 part Dijon mustard and a splash of vinegar for a similar flavor.
Can I make this dairy-free?
Use dairy-free butter and omit the Monterey Jack cheese or substitute with a dairy-free shred.
