Butterflied Chicken breast, string beans and steamed rice

I made that this evening.  I actually made it up.

It has been a great day I woke up with Psalm 118:24, " This is the Day that the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it".  With will I went to church and do other stuff we needed done.  The day came to an end and we were hungry.  I looked into my ice box and cooked the meal below.  If feels good:

1. I butterflied the 2 rather large chicken boneless skinless chicen breast for the first time.  Wash them and set them aside in
   a clean plate.


2. I  mixed the following in a small bowl: 1 teaspoon bright red spanish paprika powder
                                          1 teaspoon rubbed sage
                                          1/3 teaspoon salt
                                          1 teaspoon ground black pepper.

3. Sprinkle the mixture on both sides of the breasts.

Sprinkle the mixture on both sides of the chicken breasts.


I added the tenderloins also with the butterflied breasts


4. Heat 2 tablespoons each of unsalted butter and olive oil in a 12" heavy non stick skillet
5. Put chicken pieces in the skillet, let them cook for 2 minutes or so.
6. Turn the chicken pieces. Repeat this till the meat is cooked.
7 Remove the chicken from the skillet.

8. 3 cups of green or string beans, washed and cut diagonally in about 2" lengths.

in goes the string beans..

9. Add these into the skillet where the drippings of the chicken is still there.
   Stir fry till beans are cook to your own desire.

Ready to eat!

Serve them both with a cup of steamed white rice.  Garnish with 2 wedges of Lemon.
