Ingredients
- 2 1/2 to 3 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken pieces
- kosher salt and black pepper
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 4 cups arugula
- 1 15.5-ounce can cannellini beans, rinsed

- Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, toss the arugula and beans with the pesto and ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper.
- Add the lemon to the drippings in the reserved skillet and cook until golden, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Mix in the olives. Top the chicken with the olives and lemon and serve with the salad.
