Prep

Step 1. Heat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Set out a large baking dish and a mixing bowl.
Step 2. Melt half the Butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add Onion and Celery and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in Sage and Thyme.
Step 3. Transfer the vegetables to the bowl. Toss with Bread and some of the Chicken Broth until the bread is evenly moistened.

Cook

Step 4. Melt the rest of the Butter in the skillet over medium heat. Stir in All-Purpose Flour and cook until bubbling, about 1 minute.
Step 5. Gradually whisk in the rest of the Chicken Broth and Milk. Add Salt and Black Pepper; simmer, stirring, until thick enough to coat a spoon, about 3 minutes.
Step 6. Fold Green Beans and Chicken Breast into the sauce. Transfer to the baking dish and spread the stuffing evenly over the top.
Step 7. Bake until the stuffing is golden, the sauce bubbles, and the chicken is cooked through with no pink inside, about 25 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.
