Ingredients

• 4 medium potatoes
• 0.5 cup unsweetened almond milk
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 pound skinless chicken breasts
• 0 olive oil cooking spray
• 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 1 cup frozen corn kernels
• 0.5 cup reduced-fat shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 teaspoon dried parsley

Directions

Step 1

Peel and cube the potatoes. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil, add potatoes, and cook until tender, about 15 minutes.

Step 2

Drain the potatoes and mash them with unsweetened almond milk, salt, and black pepper until smooth. Set aside and keep warm.

Step 3

Slice the skinless chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces. Coat a non-stick skillet with olive oil cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook until golden and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes.

Step 4

In a small saucepan, bring the low-sodium chicken broth to a boil. In a small bowl, dissolve cornstarch in 2 tablespoons of cold water and stir into the boiling broth. Reduce heat and simmer for about 3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the gravy thickens.

Step 5

Microwave the frozen corn kernels according to package instructions or until heated through, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 6

Assemble the bowl by layering mashed potatoes, cooked chicken, corn, and pouring the gravy over the top. Sprinkle with reduced-fat shredded cheddar cheese.

Step 7

Place the bowls in the microwave for about 30 seconds to melt the cheese slightly.

Step 8

Sprinkle each bowl with dried parsley before serving.
