BBQ Chicken

Mashed Potatoes

Method

BBQ Chicken

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. While the grill is heating, rub the chicken breasts with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Grill the Chicken

    Place the chicken breasts on the grill and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  3. 3

    Add BBQ Sauce

    During the last few minutes of grilling, brush the chicken breasts with BBQ sauce, allowing it to caramelize slightly.

  4. 4

    Rest the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for about 5 minutes before serving.

Mashed Potatoes

  1. 5

    Boil the Potatoes

    Peel and chop the potatoes into even chunks. Place them in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add a pinch of salt and bring to a boil over high heat.

  2. 6

    Cook the Potatoes

    Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and let the potatoes cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are fork-tender.

  3. 7

    Mash the Potatoes

    Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add butter, milk, salt, and black pepper. Mash until smooth and creamy.

  4. 8

    Serve

    Serve the mashed potatoes alongside the BBQ chicken.
