Rosemarry Chicken w/ Balsamic Orange glaze, and Green beans

I used Balsamic vinegar for the 1st time last night. I am now in love! Talk about easy, and Yummy!!  Here's what I made.
Things you need
Chicken, with skin removed. I prefer it bone in, because it makes it really tender and juicy.
Salt and Pepper to taste
A sprinkle of Poultry seasoning
Rosemary
1/3 Cup Orange Coulis (recipe to follow)
1/3 Cup Balsamic Vinegar
1/2 Cup Chicken Broth

 Preheat your oven to 350.  Heat pan, add about a table spoon or so of Olive oil. Sprinkle you chicken with salt, pepper, and poultry seasoning, put into heated pan. Sprinkle chicken with rosemary (I like to use a lot). Cook for about 3-4 min on each side. Remove from heat, and transfer chicken into baking dish. Bake at 350 for 15-20 min, till completely cooked. While chicken is in the oven, in bowl combine orange coulis, vinegar, and broth. Whisk well. Once Chicken is done reheat the same pan, put chicken back in pan. Pour liquid over chicken. Simmer for about 10 min, until liquid turns into a glaze. Then you're done.
For the green beans I smashed 1 garlic glove and tossed it in a hot pan with olive oil, and cooked for a min or two. Then added about 2 handfuls of fresh green beans, and drizzled with a little bit more oil. Cook for about 7-10 min. You want them to still be firm, but not raw. Remove from pan and put on your plate.

Orange Coulis.
2 oranges peeled, and chopped. Toss into sauce pan with 1/3 cup of white sugar, and 1/2 cup of water. Simmer for about 15 min. Remove from heat and strain, using a spatula to mush it, so that you get all the juice out.   Super easy. You can add more sugar if it's not sweet enough for you.
