Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs)
- 4 medium Yukon gold potatoes (about 2 lbs)
- 4 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 4 tbsp butter
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tsp poultry seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the potatoes by peeling and chopping them into even pieces. Rinse under cold water, then boil in salted water until fork-tender (15-20 minutes).
- While the potatoes cook, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Season chicken with poultry seasoning, then sauté until golden brown on both sides and cooked through (6-7 minutes each side).
- Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add butter and half a cup of chicken broth; mash until creamy. Season with salt and pepper.
- In the same skillet used for the chicken, add more chicken broth to deglaze; simmer until slightly thickened.
- To serve, scoop mashed potatoes into bowls, top with sliced chicken and sauce. Add steamed vegetables or herbs for garnish.
