Roasted chicken with lemon garlic green beans

This recipe was a lovely surprise last week for dinner.  I threw it together at the last minute and found that it was both easy and tasty, a perfect combination for me.  I found the recipe from Real Simple here.  Of course I made a couple changes, for starters I halved the recipe.  Since we are a family of 2.75 (2 adults, 1 child and 1 baby) I didn't need 4 chicken breasts.  Now that I know how fabulous this recipe is I might double it next time so that there would be lots of left-overs.

Roasted Chicken with Lemon Garlic Green Beans
Ingredients
3 Tbsp olive oil
1 lemon - 1/2 thinly sliced, 1/2 juiced
2 cloves of garlic, minced
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1/2 pound trimmed green beans (I used frozen)
4 small potatoes (I used 2 red and 2 purple)
2 chicken breasts

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees.  Coat a medium baking dish (I used 2.5 quart corning wear) or cast-iron skillet with 1/2 Tbsp of the olive oil.  Arrange the lemon slices on the bottom of the dish (doesn't have to cover the bottom).
2. In a large bowl combine the remaining oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt and pepper.  Add the green beans and toss to coat.  Using tongs remove the green beans and arrange them on top of the lemon slices.  Add the potatoes to the same olive oil mixture and toss to coat.  Using the tongs arrange the potatoes along the inside edge of the dish or skillet on top of the green beans.  Place the chicken in the same bowl with the olive oil mixture and coat thoroughly.  Place the chicken in the dish or skillet.  Pour any of the remaining olive oil mixture over the chicken.
3. Roast for 45-50 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.  
4. Serve immediately.
