Ingredients

• 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 4 pieces russet potatoes
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 0.5 cups whole milk
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 pieces garlic cloves
• 2 teaspoons fresh rosemary
• 2 teaspoons fresh thyme
• 2 pieces carrots
• 1 cup broccoli florets
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon optional parsley (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Peel and dice the russet potatoes into evenly sized chunks. Place them in a large pot, cover with water, and boil over medium heat until fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.

Step 2

While the potatoes cook, pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels and season them with 1 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, 1 teaspoon of rosemary, and 1 teaspoon of thyme.

Step 3

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken breasts and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side, until golden brown and fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F). Remove from the skillet and let rest for 5 minutes.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sauté minced garlic for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add diced carrots and broccoli florets, and cook for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper, if desired.

Step 5

Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them and return them to the pot. Add butter and milk, then mash until creamy and smooth. Season with salt to taste.

Step 6

To assemble the dish, plate a generous serving of mashed potatoes, top with sliced chicken breast, and serve the vegetable medley on the side. Garnish with chopped parsley, if using.

Step 7

Enjoy your 'Something Good' meal warm!
