Ingredients
Instructions
- Adjust rack to middle position and preheat oven to 425°F. Wash and dry produce (except potatoes). Pat chicken dry with paper towels and season all over with salt and pepper; place in center of oven-ready tray. Place 1 tablespoon dressing in a small bowl; reserve remaining dressing in a separate small bowl for serving. Brush tops of each chicken cutlet with ½ tablespoon dressing. Sprinkle with Monterey Jack cheese. Using your hands, finely crush crispy fried onions in their package; sprinkle over cheese, pressing to adhere.
- Arrange green beans around chicken in tray. Drizzle oil over green beans and season with half the garlic powder, salt and pepper. Roast on middle rack until green beans are tender and chicken is cooked through, 20-25 minutes.
- When chicken has about 8 minutes left, place sealed potato bag front side down in the microwave; microwave 5 minutes. Let bag cool in microwave for 2 minutes. Alternatively, transfer potatoes to a medium microwave-safe bowl, cover tightly with plastic wrap and microwave until tender, about 5 minutes. Carefully open bag (watch out for steam!) and add remaining garlic powder, 1 tablespoon butter, a pinch of salt and pepper. Toss until potatoes are evenly coated.
- Divide chicken, green beans and potatoes between plates. Serve with reserved dressing on the side.
Recipe Tips
For extra crispy topping, crush the fried onions finely and press them firmly onto the cheese.
If you don’t have an oven-ready tray, use a baking sheet lined with foil.
