Ingredients
- 2.5 pound chicken breast (boneless, skinless, halved horizontally into cutlets)
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1.5 teaspoon kosher salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1.5 pound green beans (trimmed)
- 2 yellow bell peppers (medium, sliced into thin strips)
- 1 lime (medium, cut into wedges)
- 2 tablespoon fresh cilantro (chopped)
Instructions
- In a small bowl, blend the ground coriander, ground cumin, garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of the kosher salt, and the black pepper. Rub the seasoning blend evenly over both sides of the chicken cutlets.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken cutlets in batches for 4 to 5 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Transfer to a platter and rest 5 minutes.
- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the same skillet over medium-high heat. Add the trimmed green beans, sliced yellow bell peppers, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt. Sauté for 6 to 8 minutes, tossing frequently, until vegetables are blistered and tender-crisp.
- Squeeze fresh lime wedges over the chicken and vegetables, garnish with chopped cilantro if desired, and serve immediately.
Notes
Pounding chicken cutlets to an even 1/2-inch thickness ensures quick, even cooking in the skillet.
