Chicken and Sauce

Broccolini and Mashed Potatoes

Method

Preparing the Chicken and Sauce

  1. 1

    Season the Chicken

    Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Pan-Sear the Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken breasts and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

  3. 3

    Make the Sauce

    In the same skillet, add minced garlic and capers. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in the white wine, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Bring to a simmer and let cook for about 3-4 minutes to reduce slightly.

  4. 4

    Finish the Sauce

    Add butter to the sauce and stir until melted and combined. Return the chicken to the skillet and coat in the sauce. Cook for another 2 minutes to reheat the chicken.

Preparing Broccolini and Mashed Potatoes

  1. 5

    Cook the Potatoes

    In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the cubed potatoes and cook until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and return to the pot.

  2. 6

    Mash the Potatoes

    Add butter, milk, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to the drained potatoes. Mash until smooth and creamy.

  3. 7

    Steam the Broccolini

    While the potatoes are cooking, steam the broccolini for 4-5 minutes until tender but still vibrant green.
