Ingredients

For the Meal:

1 1⁄2 to 2 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs
1 lb green beans, washed, stems removed
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp water
1⁄2 tsp garlic powder
1⁄2 tsp salt
1⁄4 tsp pepper
1 – 2 tsp Sumo Citrus juice
1 baguette
1 recipe Sumo Citrus Honey Lavender Marinade

For the Sumo Citrus Honey Lavender Marinade:

1⁄4 cup Sumo Citrus juice (about one Sumo Citrus)
1⁄4 cup honey
1⁄2 cup olive oil
1 tbsp dried culinary lavender buds
1 1⁄2 tsp fine sea salt
1 tsp Sumo Citrus zest (about one Sumo Citrus)
1 tsp ground black pepper
1 tsp minced garlic
1 tsp dried thyme

Instructions

In a small bowl, combine all of the marinade ingredients.

Place chicken thighs in a shallow bowl, fully coat with marinade, cover, and refrigerate for an hour.

Preheat the oven to 400 F.

Bake chicken in a rimmed 9”x13” baking pan for 25 – 30 minutes, or until the internal temperature is 165 degF in the thickest part of the thigh.

Once out of the oven, cover the pan with aluminum foil and let rest for 10 minutes.

While the chicken is resting, make the green beans.

To a skillet over medium heat, add 1 tbsp olive oil along with the green beans, salt, pepper, garlic powder, water, and Sumo Citrus juice. Cook 5 – 10 minutes until desired tenderness is reached.
