Instructions
1.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2.
In a bowl, mix the jerk seasoning with olive oil and lemon juice. Coat the chicken thighs in this mixture and let marinate for at least 15 minutes.
3.
Place the marinated chicken on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
4.
Bake the chicken for 25-30 minutes or until fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F/75°C).
5.
While the chicken is baking, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
6.
Add the green beans to the skillet, season with salt and pepper, and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until tender but still crisp.
7.
Serve the baked jerk chicken alongside the garlic green beans.
