Ingredients

  • 2 large chicken breast
  • 1 medium carrot
  • 1 cup green beans
  • 2 medium potato
  • ½ cup orange juice
  • 2 tbsp butter

Instructions

  1. 1

    Slice the 2 chicken breasts horizontally to open like a book, then pound to an even 1/2-inch thickness. Season both sides with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Blanch the 1 cup green beans and 1 medium carrot (cut into thin strips) in boiling water for 2 minutes, then drain. Lay the vegetables over the chicken, roll up tightly, and secure with toothpicks.

  3. 3

    In a skillet over medium-high heat, melt 1 tbsp butter and sear the roulades until golden on all sides, about 5 minutes. Add the 1/2 cup orange juice, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until chicken is cooked through, about 10 minutes.

  4. 4

    Meanwhile, boil the 2 medium potatoes until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain, mash with the remaining 1 tbsp butter and a splash of water, and season with salt.

  5. 5

    Slice the roulades, serve over the mashed potatoes, and spoon the pan sauce over the top.
