Cooking Steps

Prep and toast breading
1
  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 425°F. Wash and dry all produce.
  • Finely chop almonds.
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
  • When the pan is hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then panko and almonds. Toast for 2-3 min, stirring often, until golden. (TIP: Keep an eye on them so they don't burn!)
  • Remove from heat, then transfer almond-panko breading to a shallow dish.
  • Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine.
Bread chicken
2
  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Coat chicken all over with mayo.
  • Working with one chicken breast at a time, press both sides into almond-panko breading to coat completely.
Roast chicken
3
  • Transfer breaded chicken to a parchment-lined baking sheet, then drizzle with 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil.
  • Roast in the middle of the oven for 18-20 min, until golden and cooked through.**
Make mash
4
  • Peel, then cut sweet potatoes into 1-inch pieces. To a large pot, add sweet potatoes, 2 tsp salt and enough water to cover (by approx. 1 inch) (use same for 4 servings).
  • Cover and bring to a boil over high. Cook for 10-12 min, until fork-tender. 
  • Drain and return sweet potatoes to the same pot, off heat.
Cook green beans
5
  • Meanwhile, trim green beans.
  • Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
  • Reheat the same pan (from step 1) over medium.
  • When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, then swirl the pan for 1 min, until melted. 
  • Add green beans, garlic and 2 tbsp (1/4 cup) water. Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine. 
  • Cover and cook for 5-6 min, stirring occasionally, until tender.
Finish and serve
6
  • Mash 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter and half the maple syrup (use all for 4 servings) into sweet potatoes until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Divide garlic green beans, sweet potato mash and almond-crusted chicken between plates.
