Prep Time: 15 minutes  |  Cooking Time: 30 minutes  |  Total Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients:

3 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/4 teaspoon thyme
1 onion, chopped
1 cup water
1 pound green beans, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/4 cup butter
6 ounces mushrooms, sliced
2 tablespoons flour
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon vermouth
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, shredded

Instructions:

Season the chicken breasts with thyme, salt, and pepper.

In a large skillet, heat butter over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook until they are browned on both sides. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and cook until it becomes translucent.

Add water to the skillet and bring it to a boil. Add the green beans and cook for about 5 minutes or until they are tender-crisp. Remove the green beans from the skillet and set aside.

In the same skillet, add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they are softened and slightly browned.

Sprinkle flour over the mushrooms and stir well to coat them evenly. Cook for an additional minute to cook out the raw flour taste.

Stir in the Dijon mustard, salt, nutmeg, and pepper. Gradually pour in the heavy cream and vermouth, stirring constantly to prevent lumps from forming.

Return the chicken breasts and green beans to the skillet, nestling them into the sauce. Reduce the heat to low and let the chicken and green beans simmer in the sauce for about 10 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.

Sprinkle shredded Parmesan cheese over the chicken and green beans. Cover the skillet and let it sit for a few minutes until the cheese melts.

Serve the Creamy Chicken and Green Beans hot, garnished with additional Parmesan cheese if desired. This dish pairs well with rice, pasta, or crusty bread.
