One Pan Chicken, Green Beans & Potatoes

Ok, so I've tried this before and decided that the chicken would be better to marinate over night and cook in a separate pan...so that kind of beats the purpose of a ONE pan recipe lol BUT I'll give y'all both recipes :)

One Pan Chicken, Green Beans & Potatoes:

Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or however many you need to feed your family)
- 2 cans green beans
- 1 package baby potatoes
- 1 stick butter
- 1 packet dry Italian dressing mix

Directions:
- Preheat over to 350 degrees
- Wash potatoes and cut in halves or quarters (I did quarters)
- Melt butter in microwave until fully melted (about 30-45 seconds)
- Drain green beans and place in a single layer on one side of a baking dish
- Place uncooked chicken in a single layer in the middle of your baking dish
- Place potatoes in a single layer on the other side of your baking dish
- Pour melted butter and sprinkle the packet of dry Italian dressing mix over your green beans, chicken and potatoes
- Bake for 1 hour

So simple and easy and SO delicious!

If you want to marinate your chicken first and cook it in a separate pan follow this recipe:

Marinated Chicken:

Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or again, however many you need to feed your family)
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup oil
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/3 cup white distilled vinegar

Directions:
- Whish brown sugar, oil, soy sauce and vinegar in a medium bowl
- Place mixture and raw chicken in a ziplock bag
- Marinate over night
- Once marinated, do the same steps with the one pan recipe for the green beans and potatoes but place the chicken in a separate baking dish
- Bake every thing for 1 hour at 350 degrees

I really liked the marinated chicken better than just putting melted butter and the dry Italian dressing mix over the chicken. To me, the chicken with the melted butter and dry Italian dressing mix was just dry and bland, but the marinated chicken was SO good! I could definitely eat this recipe every day! Lol! Hope y'all enjoy and if you try it, please let me know how y'all liked it :)
