Amazing apricot chicken with roasted potatoes and green beans

1 serving prepared

Here's what you get:


Yukon Gold potato
Shallot
Thyme
Apricot jam
Green beans
Chicken breast
Balsamic vinegar
Chicken stock concentrate

The potatoes:

These went into the oven first after dicing and getting a drizzle of oil, salt and pepper. 

The protein:

The chicken was cooked in the cast iron pan for 14 minutes total flipping halfway through and set to the side.

The green beans:

I decided to cook these in the cast iron after the chicken was done. The inductions say to roast with the potatoes but I don't like how they shrivel up in the oven. It's also a good way to get some of the leftover seasoning from the chicken without adding more salt to the dish.

The sauce:

I prepared this in a small saucepan after the shallots are cooked this goes pretty quickly.

The plate:


This was the second time I've had this meal so I like it already. There's a variation from the first box, this time switching the rice for potatoes. And I prefer it actually. Because I've become used to making the pan sauce that went a lot faster than the first time I tried making it.
