Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C) with racks in the top and middle positions. Wash and dry all produce. Dice the potatoes into ½-inch pieces. Pick the dill fronds and finely chop them.
- On a baking sheet, toss the diced potatoes with a drizzle of oil, salt and pepper. Roast on the top rack, tossing halfway through, until lightly browned and tender, about 20-25 minutes.
- While the potatoes roast, pat the chicken cutlets dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and pepper. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown and cooked through, 3-5 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and let rest.
- Meanwhile, on a second baking sheet, toss the green beans with a drizzle of oil, salt and pepper. Roast on the middle rack until tender, 10-12 minutes.
- In the same skillet used for the chicken, combine the chicken stock concentrate with ¼ cup water (use ⅓ cup if serving 4). Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, 1-2 minutes. Reduce heat to low and whisk in the sour cream, half the chopped dill and Dijon mustard to taste. Turn off the heat. Stir in any juices from the resting chicken and 1 tablespoon butter (2 tablespoons for 4 servings). Season with salt and pepper.
- Slice the chicken crosswise. Divide the chicken, roasted potatoes and green beans among plates. Drizzle the sauce over everything. Garnish with the remaining chopped dill and serve.
Recipe Tips
For extra crispy potatoes, make sure they are in a single layer on the baking sheet and don’t overcrowd.
Let the chicken rest before slicing to keep it juicy.
Adjust the amount of Dijon mustard to your taste-start with 1 teaspoon and add more if desired.
FAQ
Can I use chicken breasts instead of cutlets?
Yes, you can use boneless skinless chicken breasts. Slice them in half horizontally to create thinner cutlets or pound them to an even thickness for quicker cooking.
Can I substitute the sour cream?
Greek yogurt works well as a substitute for sour cream. It will still provide a creamy texture and tangy flavor.
How do I store leftovers?
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet or microwave.
