Make
- Heat oven to 425F / 218C.
- Heat a skillet or other pan over medium-high heat. When pan is heated, brush with some cooking oil and then place chicken thighs skin-side down (don’t toss the remaining marinade). Sear on both sides for 2 to 3 minutes.
- Toss green beans with the reserved marinade and nestle chicken into green beans. You can pour any liquid remaining in the pan over the beans and chicken (skip this step for a lighter meal). Roast for 12 to 16 minutes until chicken is cooked through (reaches 165F / 74C or until juices run clear when you slice into chicken) and green beans are done.
- While chicken and green beans roast, prepare vinaigrette. Mince garlic and then whisk with oregano, maple syrup, lemon juice, vinegar, and oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Sprinkle chicken and green beans with salt and pepper fresh out of the oven. Toss vinaigrette with spinach, cucumbers, and tomatoes. Enjoy salad with chicken and green beans.
