Roasted Chicken Breasts with Fresh Beans & Sage
Available in late summer and early autumn, fresh shell beans have a sweet, creamy taste that cannot be matched by their dried counterparts. Fresh shell beans should be eaten within a few days of purchase, before they dry out. Remove the beans from the pods just before cooking.
