If you are looking for a low carb and low fat dish that is yummy this is your dish! Greek style green beans with potatoes and chicken is healthy and easy to make. My mom would make this at least a couple times a month when I was growing up. For the most part she would just do it without the meat but on occasion she threw in the chicken too.
I’m using boneless skinless chicken thighs in this recipe but you can use bone in light or dark chicken meat, whatever you prefer. Be aware that the light meat will become dry if you overcook it. If you are using light meat, I suggest that you take it out after 30 minutes of cooking and set it aside until the green beans and potatoes are done and then nestle the meat back into the pot 5 minutes before you turn off the heat.
Note that you can also make it vegetarian by leaving out the meat and using vegetable broth or water for the liquid. If you do this, you will need to add an extra 1/2 cup of vegetable broth or water since you won’t have the extra natural chicken juices to contribute to the dish.
