Parmesan Chicken and French Beans

We are continuing our cooking adventure through Jamie Oliver’s cookbook, Jamie’s Food Revolution. Tonight we tried:

• Parmesan Chicken Breasts with Crispy Posh Ham, pg. 242
• Best Ever French Beans, pg. 223

These were both excellent, quick and easy. My kids loved both. How can you go wrong with chicken, ham and parmesan cheese! It is almost like a quicker, simpler chicken cordon-blue. I used boneless, skinless thighs rather than breasts because my grocery store only had organic thighs today. The result with the darker meat was very rich. The prosciutto crisped up very nicely but was much better than bacon would have been in it’s place since it is so much leaner. I would really recommend getting a nice piece of parmesan rather than a pre-shredded bag. It makes such a difference in flavor.

The green beans were a very nice compliment with the chicken. This is a really good recipe with the garlic, lemon and parmesan. We really enjoyed it.
