Ingredients

• 0.5 pound chicken breast (boneless, skinless, cut into cutlets)
• 1 tablespoon maple syrup (pure)
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper (ground)
• 6 ounce green beans (trimmed)
• 1 package baby red potatoes (8 oz package)

Instructions

1. Whisk together the maple syrup, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, 1/4 teaspoon of the salt, and 1/8 teaspoon of the black pepper in a small bowl.
2. Season the chicken breast with the remaining salt and black pepper.
3. Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Place the seasoned chicken breast in the pan and sear for 5 to 6 minutes per side until golden.
4. Pour the maple-Dijon sauce over the chicken in the skillet, lower the heat to medium-low, and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes, spooning sauce over the top until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees.
5. Meanwhile, cook the microwave baby red potatoes according to package directions for 4 minutes until fork-tender, and microwave the trimmed green beans with 1 tablespoon water for 3 minutes until tender.
6. Serve the glazed chicken breast alongside the steamed baby red potatoes and green beans, spooning the warm pan glaze over the top.

Notes

Using thin-sliced chicken cutlets ensures quick, even cooking in under 15 minutes.
