- Preheat oven to 180 degrees C. In a flameproof casserole dish with a tight-fitting lid, heat oil over medium-high heat. Dredge the chicken in flour. Sauté until golden, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
- Add fennel to pan. Reduce heat to medium. Cook, stirring frequently, until fennel is golden, 7 minutes. Add garlic; cook 1 minute. Add stock, lemon juice, salt, rosemary, thyme and pepper. Bring to the boil. Add chicken, cover, place in oven.
- Cook until chicken is done, about 35 minutes. Stir in the white beans and green beans. Bake a further 5 minutes.
