TIPS & TRICKS

If you love green bean casserole with crispy fried onions, try garnishing this chicken and green beans dish with french-fried onions for extra flavor and crunch.

While this one-pot wonder makes a hearty meal on its own, our creamy garlic parmesan chicken and green beans recipe also goes well alongside a crisp salad, mashed potatoes, biscuits or more Green Giant® vegetables.
