Lemon Chicken with Green Beans and Mushrooms
This one-dish, old-fashioned chicken braise features the sunny flavors of Herbes de Provence.
Herbes de Provence, a sunny combination of rosemary, marjoram, thyme, savory and lavender, brings life to everything from eggs and scalloped potatoes to lamb and chicken.
