Directions
-
Preheat oven to 350ðF (175ðC).
-
Place each chicken breast half in the center of a 14x12-inch sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil.
-
In a small bowl, combine minced garlic, minced fresh rosemary, and salt.
-
Rub the garlic-rosemary mixture evenly over both sides of each chicken breast.
-
In a medium bowl, stir together cannellini beans, chopped sun-dried tomatoes, chopped purple onion, olive oil, and lemon juice.
-
Spoon the bean mixture evenly over the top of each chicken breast.
-
Bring the long sides of the foil together and fold down loosely to create a sealed packet, crimping edges to keep juices inside.
-
Place the foil packets on a baking sheet.
-
Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165ðF and is no longer pink.
-
Carefully open packets (watch for hot steam) and garnish with fresh rosemary sprigs before serving.
