1
Take citrus and roll it on counter.
-
2
Smash it to loosen up the inside and help the juices break out, this is the fun part!
-
3
Squeeze out as much juice as possible into a marinating dish or large plastic bag.
-
4
I scooped out the flesh from the peel and put in my dish, too, but if you prefer not to have the pulpy part you can leave it out.
-
5
A little zest would be nice, too.
-
6
Add soy sauce and margarita mix.
-
7
Add chicken, chopped onion (I like it in big long pieces), cilantro, and mix it up.
-
8
Allow to marinate in refrigerator 1-2 hours, but not too much longer because the citrus will start breaking down the meat.
-
9
Heat large pan (mine is non-stick) and add the mixture.
-
10
Let it start to simmer (about 3-4 minutes).
-
11
Add in garlic and greenbeans and let cook about another 7 minutes or until chicken and green beans are cooked through.
-
12
You could add some red pepper flakes to give it some heat in this step if you like a little more spice.
-
13
Pile ingredients on one side of the pan and add in the cornstarch.
-
14
Let it start to simmer and watch it start to bubble.
-
15
It'll take about two minutes.
-
16
Mix it through and heat about another minute then remove from heat.
-
17
The longer it sits the thicker the sauce will be.

I like to serve it over white basmati rice (and throw in a bay leaf while rice cooks for a little unique flavor).
