Ingredients
Directions
- Heat a large skillet over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil to pan; swirl to coat.
- Sprinkle chicken evenly with 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper. Add chicken to pan, skin side down. Cook 2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-high; place another heavy skillet, bottom-side down, directly onto chicken (if your skillet isn't heavy, you can place 1 to 2 canned goods on top to weigh it down). Cook 5 minutes or until skin is crispy. Remove top skillet. Turn chicken over; cook 2 minutes or until done. Remove chicken from pan.
- Return pan to high heat. Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to pan. Add onion and pepper to pan; sauté 2 minutes or until lightly charred. Add beans to pan; cook 1 minute. Stir in remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Gently stir in pesto. Serve over chicken and enjoy!
