Whipped Potatoes

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Boil the potatoes in salted water until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and return to pot.

  2. 2

    Whip the Potatoes

    Add butter, heavy cream, and salt to the potatoes. Mash until smooth and creamy. Set aside.

Cooking the Chicken

    Season the Chicken

    Season the airline chicken breasts with salt and black pepper.

  2. 4

    Cook the Chicken

    In a skillet, heat olive oil and butter over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken breasts for 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and keep warm.

Making the Mushroom Ragout

    Sauté the Aromatics

    In the same skillet, add shallots and garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened.

  2. 6

    Add the Mushrooms

    Add sliced mushrooms and thyme, cooking until mushrooms are tender and browned.
