Ingredients

• 1 pound green beans, trimmed and rinsed
• 2 teaspoons olive oil, divided
• 1 pound button mushrooms, sliced
• 4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
• 1 lemon, zested and juiced
• 1 yellow onion, cut into 1/4-inch thick rings
• 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast, sliced 1/2-inch thick
• 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
• 2 teaspoons dried thyme
• 1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Directions

Fill a large pot halfway with water and bring to a boil. Prepare an ice bath nearby. Add beans to pot and reduce heat to medium-high. Cook until tender-crisp, about 5 minutes. Drain and plunge into ice bath; drain again and set aside.

In a large nonstick skillet, heat 1 teaspoon oil on medium heat. Add mushrooms and sauté, stirring occasionally, for 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in garlic, lemon zest and juice and sauté for 1 minute. Stir in beans and heat through. Remove from heat and cover to keep warm.

Meanwhile, in a separate large nonstick skillet, heat remaining 1 teaspoon oil on medium. Add onion and sauté for 5 minutes. Add chicken, vinegar, thyme and salt and cook, stirring often, for 8 minutes, until chicken is cooked through. Remove from heat. Divide chicken and bean mixtures among plates and drizzle chicken with pan juices.
