Baked Chicken and White Beans
From: Liz Ingle
2 large or 4 small chicken breasts (soaked in marinade for at least 1 hour)
1 can of Great Northern White Beans, rinsed and drained
½ small brown onion, diced
1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon, plus ½ tsp. olive oil
1 teaspoon oregano
1 tablespoon water
Pinch of salt
Pinch of pepper
For marinade:
½ cup lite Italian dressing
½ teaspoon salt
¼ dry white wine
Directions:
For Chicken: Combine ingredients for marinade in a Ziploc bag, whisk together and add chicken to bag. Soak for at least an hour or up to overnight. Preheat oven to 365 degrees, add chicken to baking dish with a small portion of the marinade, cover with foil and bake for 30 min or until juice in chicken runs clear.
For Beans: In a medium saucepan, add 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and saut̩ until translucent. Add drained canned beans; stir to mix onions and beans. Add remaining olive oil and water. Heat ingredients together for a couple minutes, then reduce heat to low. Add the vinegar, oregano, salt, and pepper. Cover and let simmer on low until beans are soft and warm, approximately 5 Р10 min. Add additional water if needed (bean mixture should be moist so as not to burn in the pan).
