Pancakes for dinner! Looks like, but no: these are cornbread cakes, sweet and fluffy and amazingly easy to make for the flavors they contain. And that's not Mrs. Butterworth offering sweet salutations in syrup form: that's a blueberry BBQ sauce that brings new flavor heights to the chicken. And that's not green beans!... Ok, ok, those are green beans. Guess you won't get fooled again. Tip: Line 'em up! The best way to remove the ends of green beans is to line them up evenly, then remove them with one cut.

Trim ends off green beans.
Stem jalapeño, halve, seed, remove ribs, and mince. Wash hands and cutting board after working with jalapeño.In a mixing bowl, combine corn muffin mix, jalapeño, and 1/2 cup water until a thick batter forms. Set aside.Pat chicken dry, and season both sides with a pinch of salt and pepper. -
2 Start the Chicken

3 Roast the Chicken and Green Beans
