Preheat the oven to 350F

Chop the head of the garlic off.

On a plate or small pan, add flour, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Mix around. Chop the chicken into halves and pound with a mallet to thin.

Drench each chicken breast in the flour mixture. Set on a plate aside.

Add the chicken breasts onto the pan and flip when browned on the other side. Let cook until 165F internally.

On a separate pan, add olive oil and green beans. Cook on medium heat for about 8 minutes, or until fully cooked

Remove the chicken from the pan and turn the heat down to low/ medium. Add in chicken broth, garlic confit, cream, 1/2 tsp cornstarch, Parmesan, salt pepper and Italian seasoning. Let simmer for about 4-5 minutes, or until thickened. Add the chicken back in and baste the sauce over the chicken with a spoon.

Heat the microwaveable mashed potatoes.

Serve the mashed potatoes. Add the chicken and green beans on top.

Pour the sauce from the pan over the chicken. Top with chives. Serve and enjoy!
