Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add chicken, skin-side down, and sear both sides until golden brown. (The skin side will take much longer, in order to properly render the fat and crisp up the skin.)
4. Step
Remove chicken thighs and set aside. Pour out any excess fat, but leave some in for the sauce.
5. Step
Add garlic, stir until fragrant, then add brown sugar, honey, thyme, and oregano, and stir. Reduce heat to low.
6. Step
Return chicken to the skillet. Coat the chicken in the sauce.
7. Step
Add green beans to skillet.
8. Step
Bake for 25 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
