I tried to think of a better name for this, but straight to the point seemed easiest, so here we are. Teriyaki Green Beans & Air Fryer Chicken- a super easy dinner for busy week nights! I literally LOVE finding recipes that are simple to put together because most days after a long day or working, the last thing I want to do is cook.
I found this recipe on @josipellicano‘s Instagram and modified it a bit. Hers called for spicy hot honey sauce and I decided to use teriyaki instead since I’m a wimp with spice. You can easily add spice to my version below if that’s more your jam!
What you need:
*Fresh Green Beans
*Fresh mushrooms (any kind you want to use)
*Chicken Breasts
*One Egg
*Minced garlic
*Teriyaki sauce (I used this one but you can use any!)
What to do:
Step 1- Cook rice as indicated on the package. Takes about 20 minutes in total.
Step 2– Wash and dry all veggies, trim green beans, cut up mushrooms. Crack one egg into a bowl and whisk. In another bowl, pour panko breadcrumbs.
Step 3- Prep Chicken. Cut the chicken breasts in half lengthwise. Dip the cutlets into the egg and then into the breadcrumbs to coat.
Step 4- Cook chicken in the air fryer at 390 degrees for about 17 minutes.
Step 5- While chicken is in the air fryer, saute the green beans and garlic in a medium size pan. Drizzle with a little olive oil, add salt & pepper. After a few minutes, add in the mushroom and a splash of water. After another 5 minutes, add in the teriyaki sauce. I didn’t measure, just generously coated the veggies. Cook for another 5 or so minutes.
Step 6- When the chicken is done, cut into strips. Then plate! Feel free to add soy sauce or chili flakes if you’d like!
Hope you enjoy!
