Description

This is a third generation recipe and one that is about as simple as it gets. French-style green beans are topped with Chicken breasts, a creamy soup mixture, and a sprinkling of parmesan cheese and baked until bubbly. Best served over mashed potatoes or rice.

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans French-style green beans, drained
1 (10 1/2 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup
3/4 cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2 Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Quickly brown the chicken breast halves on both sides. Do not cook through. Remove from heat, and set aside.
3 Pour the green beans into a 2 quart casserole dish. Place the chicken on top of the beans. In a small bowl, mix together the cream of chicken soup and mayonnaise. Spread over the top of the chicken and beans. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the top.
4 Bake for 35 to 40 minutes in the preheated oven, until the chicken is no longer pink, and the cheese is browned.
