Description

The warmth of a Mediterranean breeze plays all over this stylish supper. It starts with roasted baby potatoes, turned to gold and fork-tender in the heat of the oven. Plate them with a lively salad composed of boiled string beans, tomatoes and green olives, all dressed in quickly made whole-grain mustard vinaigrette. Slices of juicy pan-seared chicken are the kicker for sustenance, while big airy croutons are the clincher for crunchiness.
