Preheat oven to 425 degrees and adjust rack to top position. Wash and dry all produce. Drain @cannellini beans{15%oz} over a #small bowl{}; reserve liquid. Trim @green beans{8%oz} if necessary. Dice @tomato{1%unit} into ½-inch pieces.

Melt 1 tbsp @butter{2%tbsp} in a #medium pot{} over medium heat. Add cannellini beans and cook, stirring, until slightly softened, ~{2%minutes}. Add ¼ cup reserved bean liquid. Simmer until warmed through, ~{1%minutes}. Remove from heat. Stir in @crème fraîche{2%tbsp}. Using a potato masher or fork, mash beans until mostly smooth. Season generously with @salt{1%tsp} and @black pepper{½%tsp}. Cover to keep warm.

Meanwhile, toss green beans on a #baking sheet{} with a drizzle of @olive oil{1%tbsp}, salt, and pepper. Roast on top rack until browned and tender, ~{12%minutes}.

Pat @chicken cutlets{12%oz} dry with paper towels. Season with half the @tuscan heat spice{1%unit}, salt, and pepper. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a #medium pan{} over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, ~{3%minutes} per side. Remove from pan and set aside.

Heat a drizzle of olive oil in pan used for chicken over medium-high heat. Add tomato and remaining tuscan heat spice. Cook, stirring, until slightly softened, ~{1%minutes}. Stir in @balsamic vinegar{2%tbsp}, @chicken stock concentrate{1%unit}, ¼ cup @water{1%cup}, and ¼ tsp @sugar{1%tsp}. Simmer until reduced and slightly thickened, ~{2%minutes}. Remove from heat. Stir in remaining butter; season with salt and pepper.

If mashed beans have cooled, reheat over medium heat along with a splash of water, stirring constantly, until warmed through. Slice chicken crosswise. Divide mashed beans and roasted green beans between plates. Top mashed beans with chicken. Spoon sauce over chicken and serve.
