I couldn’t find haricot verts and so used regular beans, but they were quite fresh. The author called for zebra tomatoes, which were so not available here. But again, at least fresh ripe tomatoes are available at this time of year. I’ve got glorious oregano still in my herb bed, although sadly had to buy fresh parsley as that’s all gone.
The chicken is marinated first, just for 30 minutes, then the dish is oven-done. The combination of the beans and kalamata olives and herbs with the chicken was pretty outrageously good.
She does have a similar recipe on her blog if you’d like to try it. She doesn’t specify olives there – black kalamata olives were perfect, and you might like trying a tablespoon of chopped fresh parsley, as well. The blog version also is missing 3 minced garlic cloves! Quelle horreur!
Awaiting a starch:
Such a good book.
