Roasted Chicken Breast Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Roasting the Chicken

   Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Season the chicken breasts with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and thyme. Place the chicken on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

2. 2

   Preparing the Whipped Potatoes

   While the chicken is roasting, peel and chop the potatoes. Boil in salted water until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and return to the pot. Add butter and milk, then mash until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

3. 3

   Cooking the Haricots Verts

   In a pot of boiling salted water, blanch the haricots verts for 3-5 minutes until tender-crisp. Drain and immediately plunge into ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain again and set aside.

4. 4

   Making the Dijon Jus

   In a small saucepan, combine chicken broth and Dijon mustard. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring until well combined. Cook for 5 minutes, then remove from heat.

5. 5

   Plating the Dish

   Once the chicken is done, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. Serve the sliced chicken breast over a bed of whipped potatoes, with haricots verts on the side. Drizzle the Dijon jus over the chicken and garnish with fresh parsley.
