THREE TIPS in SIDEBAR: Step 1: When trimming green beans, you only need remove the stem end. The other end, with its thin little "tail", is cute—and this cuts your prep time by half! Step 3: Drying chicken before pan-searing is a crucial step to golden, juicy meat. When the chicken's surface is dry, it sears much more quickly and easily. Once it's golden, a quick oven-roast keeps the chicken juicy and delicious. Step 4: It's important to stir the dish really well after adding the butter and maple syrup so they both emulsify into a sauce to coat the veggies.
